OT: new southwest airfares for March are much higher

[LongJakk]

Southwest recently opened up late March 2016 for booking. When I check the prices for flights from BWI to FtL the cheap "Wanna get away" rates are $237 where for the already open February and early March the rates are around $122 for the same day of week flights. Does anyone know if these higher prices are permanent or if they are expected to go back down?
Thanks!

Well, Easter is March 27th next year. So late March will be a popular time to travel, especially to South Florida. I wouldn't expect those fares to go down much, if at all.

They seem to be changing constantly. I have a trip through southwest from Baltimore to Chicago in November and got a rate of $59 going out and $79 coming back. Checked back on Monday just out of curiosity and the return flight dropped to $59 forgot to call southwest to see if they would change it. Just checked back a few min ago my same flight is up to $150. All this week, I know that isn't the same time frame as yours but they seem to be changing drastically and frequently.
