Purchase drink coupons / What do I do with points about to expire?

I have a $95 credit from previous flights that will expire before I travel again.  Does anyone know of anything I can do with them vs. just losing them?  

 

Thanks!

Hi 

 

You can call SWA customer service and for a small fee you can get the expiration date exrended.

How much is the fee to extend funds

You must wait until your travel credit has expired in order to request an extension. If you call before your funds expire you will be told to wait and call back after the your travel credit expires. The LUV voucher expiration date will be exactly six months from the day that Southwest sends it to you by email.

How long are flight cancellation funds good for?  I didn't know they had an expiration date.

1 year from the date you purchased!  Not the flight date.

Thanks! I must be doing something wrong then because my unused funds are from 2 months ago and it won't let me use them.
