Southwest Airlines is promoting a fare sale with flights priced at $67, referencing the “6-7” trend. The airline is using the phrase as part of its marketing, even though the meaning remains unclear and is mainly associated with kids and teenagers, as per ABC7 Chicago.

The low-cost carrier is offering a promotion on domestic flights scheduled between January 6 and March 4, 2026, with discounted fares available only for travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and excluding blackout dates during peak periods and holidays. CW39 reports that tickets must be booked “by today and at least 21 days in advance,” with limited seats prompting the airline to urge quick action.

Southwest has branded the promotion the “trendiest sale ever,” tying the fare price to the slang term “6-7” as a nod to current cultural trends and younger travelers, as stated by ABC7 Chicago. The airline says the campaign reflects a broader effort to stay culturally relevant while offering low-cost travel opportunities during the early months of the year.
