When is the best time to buy Southwest Airlines tickets?

Sadly, there is no specific CHEAPEST time. That time can come at any moment; you have to consistently check for flights, and if a flight isn't filling.

Southwest Airlines has different fares for each flight, but the cheapest are bought up first, so it is vitally important that you monitor when the airline opens advance bookings for the days you want to travel and buy on or just after "opening day."

Early spring and about midway through summer, you can get airfare for 49 to 99 dollars one way, but only to select cities. Prices also vary depending on how far in advance you book. There is a 2 week minimum required to get the lower fares. Most major cities and airports are included.
