Northwest has announced a new domestic sale for travel through late August. Prices start at $358 round-trip, and New Orleans, Tampa, and Washington, D.C., are included.

This sale is spotty, as Northwest’s prices were among the best available for two routes and were beaten by three. The Fayetteville/Tampa and Wichita/Birmingham prices were competitive, but American, United, and US Airways matched the latter. AirTran topped Northwest for travel between Kansas City and Detroit, Continental offered a lower Lexington/New Orleans fare, and Frontier beat the sale fare for the Oklahoma City/Washington, D.C., route. Northwest’s offer is worth considering, but you’ll have to compare fares before booking to ensure you get the best deal for your route.
