Midwest has announced a new domestic sale. Fares start at $124 round-trip, and destinations include Las Vegas, New York, Milwaukee, and Orlando.

Midwest’s sale is facing some tough competition. I found lower fares for every route I checked, from airlines including AirTran, American, ATA, Continental, Frontier, Northwest, United, US Airways, and even Midwest itself. You’ll likely do better than this sale, so compare fares before you book.
