American, US Airways, Continental, Delta, Spirit and other airlines have launched sales on routes nationwide for last-minute getaways over the next two weekends. Some sales end as soon as Oct. 7, and the lowest-priced seats will sell out fast, so booking soon is recommended.

To find the best fares try departing on Saturday and returning on either Monday or Tuesday.
