I’m currently in Chicago there is weather here. Weather is not something the airline can control.
you should always fly in a day before an event doesn’t matter what airline you take delays happen. You should not expect to be at an event a few hours after you land, where any slight delay will mess up your whole day.
Since your flight is delayed, you are entitled to a refund. You just have to request it or move to a different flight Free of charge. But you don’t get to take the flight and get a refund.

as A List the only extra you get is the extra points if you don’t care about the few points save the money and buy WGA instead of WGA+

I thought the credit cards came with free upgraded boarding several per year depending on the card you have. You charge it to your card then you get a statement credit for it

I never get the rapid reward statement emails but I get every other type of email and unfortunately SW hasn’t figured out the issue
you can try having your wife unsubscribe from all emails then resubscribe and maybe that will fix the issue as sometimes you might accidentally hit the unsubscribe link on the email when scrolling

I’ve seen lots of fake accounts on Twitter (X) as well when I see them I report them for removal unfortunately there are lots of scam accounts on both Facebook and Twitter (X)
the best way to know if your really dealing with Southwest is look for the verified mark I’m and remember Southwest won’t add you as a friend to assist you on Facebook
@robt77burke1 if you have the link of the Facebook account please share it and I’ll pass it on for them to try and get it removed

So tonight I went to check in for my flight and I noticed this nice little option to view where your flight is coming from on the app.
now hopefully the next feature will be delay information similar to what United has ex. Your flight is late because your inbound plane had a maintenance problem that needed to be addressed

Southwest has 3 gates at OKC they can’t serve every city with the 3 gates so they go to places where they can connect more people LAX isn’t an ideal connection for a lot of cities other might go.

No, I did not. Southwest stated this is a known error that occurs when using Apple Pay. The code on my bank shows it was Southwest
You could try reaching out to Southwest on Facebook or Twitter (X) in a DM and maybe they can help and if you provide proof of the purchase on your side Maybe they can reprice a new booking based on your your original cost

Does your daughter have more points than you?
This sounds crazy that we could all search the same flight and get different cash to points like 1000 for you should be the same as 1000 for me plus the same cash

So on the app I decided to look in to the cash in points on a flight from AUS-DCA on July 5th
cash ticket is $125
points alone: 8,484
cash + points: 8,800 points and $55 off
so let me think about this spend more points and $70 vs less points and $5.60
come on SW!!

So with same day change you can make the change starting at midnight so you could set an alarm and right at midnight make the change. As long as a seat exists you can get it regardless of if it’s anytime only available and as long as your destination doesn’t change and date you can pick any available flight connection city can change (I’ve changed to different connection cities just to grab lunch/dinner before)
Keep in mind should the day come and there are no later flights you will be stuck with the awful flight so be ready just in case
As mentioned you will lose your boarding position so I wouldn’t buy EB check in as it won’t apply to your new flight however you could still upgrade to the A1-15 if you want after making the same day change if it’s available

There is nothing wrong with stating Southwest policy to the employees. There need not be any tension as long as your information is non-confrontational.
There seems to be many posts about this. I thought I was the only one posting about the gate agents not following the rules, but I am seeing more and more.
Who said the tension has to do with a gate agent not following rules?? No one
maybe something like you know about how to fix your issue but they don’t know how
its not always about pointing a finger

I just realized this is only available when signing in on the web. It is not currently available in the SW App.
That’s interesting the FAQ page says only available on the app and shows how you would find it but yet I don’t have the option
I’ll try the full website
Do you get the option for all flights you select or only after a certain date or route?

I have seen the flight attendant, especially in the exit row, enforce no saving, However I do believe there are cases where people of size purchase two seats and are allowed that 2nd seat. This likely isn’t the case you ran into but something to be aware of and show some grace.
Yep and I’ve seen cases where people try to make a scene because they believe you can’t buy 2 seats if your a COS. and the unhappy customer holds up the boarding process because they want to harass some one over a seat that they purchased

It’s my understanding to see the cash plus points you would need to go though the cash rate instead of the points rates
maybe in the future they can add an option to see cash and points instead of having to go to the payment screen

So glad the ops agent and crew were able to help with getting you seats together
if you can I would send your feedback to Southwest directly by clicking on the contact us link at the bottom of this page that way they can pass on the kudos to the crew

You can request all you want then you will get rejected
good luck with that lawsuit that I’m sure will follow
honestly you will probably just end up on a no fly list because businesses can refuse service to whoever they want and if you continue to harass them they will get fed up (some places quicker than others)
if you hate the airline so much why do you continue to fly them??
maybe go test out the other airlines with the new rules just announced today of cash refunds see if they actually do it you seem like the person who would great for seeing if they follow the new rules.
I’m guessing this is one flight that the rules weren’t enforced to your liking but you will call out MCO as a whole (which is not fair)
maybe air travel isn’t for you and a car, bus, or train might be a better method since your always upset over everything
just like your fed up with Southwest I’m sure some people and companies are fed up with you. Try to run a major company I’d love to see it
make it a great day or not the choice is yours!

Southwest receives lots of applications it can take time to hear back just keep an eye on your email as sometimes emails might go to spam/junk folder so be sure to check there from time to time
Good Luck!

Filing the lost item report is your best bet patience is the next step I know your anxious to get your laptop back however it is possible they sent it to lost and found and that process does take time. You might also consider contacting Denver airport to see if it was turned into their lost and found as opposed to Southwest lost and found

Love the report
im curious does your job have any corporate accounts with hotel chains and might save you money (assume you work for a large company if you have to travel) of course earning the SW points is nice but if you can lock in status with Hilton or Marriott is always a nice plus
any plans for using all these earned SW points from the hotels? Vacation?

Also @whitesoxfan
im sorry of your bad experience on Wednesday I know they were a mess then and from what I have seen and heard from some of my friends it was a disaster that’s not the normal but unfortunately with the extra people in town flying out it made for a headache and it did take some time for kinks to be worked out
my guess is the line just kept growing from passengers missing flights and having to be rebooked and that takes time sometimes rebooking can be fast other times there’s a passenger who can’t decide what they want to do and hold up the line if you know what I mean.
id recommend sending an email to southwest sharing your experience and maybe they will be able to offer you a voucher for the inconvenience especially since you had to take a later flight
my recommendation for Southwest as another customer like yourself would have been to issue a waiver for all AUS flights once they saw what mess they were getting themselves in to that way people could change flights on the app/website without a fare difference and no agent required (similar to what they do for weather) of course HQ usually deals with those waivers but the line would have still been there for checked bags and other things but maybe slightly shorter.
