Priority Boarding How to purchase

Good Morning.  I upgraded my SW credit card and have the 4 priority boardings available.  I have searched through the website and am still not sure how to purchase this.  Can I purchase it at the kiosk when I check in or do I need to/should I wait and purchase when the ticket counter opens at the gate the hour before take off? And do I just ask to purchase priority boarding (is that the correct name for it).  I don't want to purchase the wrong thing.

 

Once I purchase it is my understanding that my CC will be reimbursed the amount.  

 

Thanks for your help.

You can buy the upgraded boarding at the gate or at the kiosk when checking your bags/ printing boarding passes. 

 

This is only available at the airport you can't buy it online. Also keep in mind the upgraded boarding cost is per flight compared to EB check in where it's valid for your one way includes connection(s)

Correct, you'll automatically see the reimbursement post to your Chase account.
