18 SW Flights so far this year for me

and have had no cancellations or reschedulings -- for any of them.

 

Flight last Friday was on an 800 and I was in row 24 (going standby can do that to you).

 

It took a Looooong time to deplane from row 24.

I've had darn near 18 flights rescheduled in the past few weeks. It appears to be done for now, however.

How'd you like that aircraft? I haven't been on one yet.

The plane was fine, but I sure don't want to near the back again.

 

BTW I did say I was on a 737-800 -- and not a Max8.

 

You have never been on an 800? They've been in the Southwest fleet for a long time.

ah, my fault - I assumed MAX8!

 

I've been on an 800 once or twice 🙂

I'm going to be on a MAX8 on Friday! First time - I'm excited! Should be fun, although with a 6AM departure, I'll probably be asleep for most of it!

Nice! I've only flown 2 flights so far but I have 10 flights queued up for the next few months - starting this weekend! And probably a few more for the fall, just haven't booked those yet.

@dfwskier This post is a bit old, so you might have a few more.  Well, I have 23/15 flights I need for A-List after this weekend's trip to SPI.  But I can't remember how many SWA gave me for the COVID.  I've had about 8 of the trips moved, one that was going to Hawaii changed so much that I cancelled that one.  I've found that the delays and late departures early in the pandemic was about zero, but have now returned to their normal 25%.  But I still love SWA.

Southwest gave you 10 segments. So you need to fly 15 paid segments in 2021 to get to A-List.

 

Good luck getting there

@dfwskier Yep, that was supposed to read, I have 23/25 flights, not 15.  So on my next trip that I pay for it will be a done deal.  That is if I don't get it from partner points first, I'm actually almost there on that as well.
