Business travelers could sign up for your program, and during their flights, they could engage in various money-making activities. For example, they could participate in surveys, watch targeted advertisements, or even perform quick freelance tasks that match their skills and expertise. Imagine a scenario where a business traveler is waiting for their connecting flight, and during this downtime, they complete a few surveys or offer their expertise for a quick consultation. This not only allows them to make some extra money but also makes the most of their travel time. To boost the appeal of your service, consider incorporating some of the quick cash tips I found on how to make quick cash in a day. These insights could help travelers maximize their earnings and make your service even more enticing.

If you fold it gently the printout will still work as long as the paper isn't worn at the creases.
I usually have a backpack or put it in the outer pocket of carry on luggage which would be fine for most travelers.

Not sure what you mean by "Red Wing" drag reduction as I could not find any credible reference of this subject anywhere else on the internet...but here's an informative article that talks about how the aviation industry is reducing drag. It goes into detail of how the plane's design, surface coatings and exterior cleanliness contribute toward better fuel efficiency and less drag:

I just ran into this dilemma this past weekend. My family cleared the stand by list one hour before boarding. So I went to agent to upgrade our seats but was told we can't if we were standby. She mentioned it seemed like a stupid rule since the seats were available and it was extra revenue for SWA but nonetheless she had no way to let us purchase them.

But early morning if flying eastbound directly at the sun, it would be ion the nose of the plane, and if flying westbound directly away fro the sun it would be on the tail of the plane,
but
during the day if flying southbound directly at the sun it would also beon the nose of the plane, but if flying northbound directly away from the sun it would be on the tail.

Could definitely be either! Usually at price point, but there is always a chance it could be seats left!!
What I usually do is go back and make a "mock reservation" with let's say 8 passengers and see if that same flight has 8 seats. That usually determines whether it is price or seats left

I believe that both of us supported the user's original comment.
Yes, with more competition the price goes down. Yes, we celebrate that observation and both are raising our glasses in toast!
It was great insight. Not sure what your concern is, however, we both supported the OP.

Has flown with this great airline since 737-300 days. Do trust me. The list of payments is whichever flight credit typed first regardless of price.
Sometime multple flight credits per credit. Wishes we could combine them to
make a single to overcome 3 method of payment.

By law, the answer is a definitive YES that such overwater flights carry both life rafts and life preservers or floatations to accommodate each occupant:
(a) No person may take off an airplane for a flight over water more than 50 nautical miles from the nearest shore unless that airplane is equipped with a life preserver or an approved flotation means for each occupant of the airplane.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section, no person may take off an airplane for flight over water more than 30 minutes flying time or 100 nautical miles from the nearest shore, whichever is less, unless it has on board the following survival equipment:
(1) A life preserver, equipped with an approved survivor locator light, for each occupant of the airplane.
(2) Enough liferafts (each equipped with an approved survival locator light) of a rated capacity and buoyancy to accommodate the occupants of the airplane.
14 CFR § 91.509 - Survival equipment for overwater operations.
FAA Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (e-CFR) Title 14—Aeronautics and Space
Each life raft is also required to have an attached survival kit.

I have not seen nor heard of any plan or proposal to permit up to three credit card payments per air fare transaction. A possible workaround would likely be to book two separate cheaper flights with the second and third credit cards but cancel these and use the flight credits plus the first credit card toward the purchase of the real flight.
Also split the trip into one-ways.

Does FBI know about checking your flight everyday to get flight credit?
Does not want to look suspicious
There's nothing illegal or suspicious about checking Southwest's Low Fare Calendar daily for fare decreases. I check this frequently for both my airfare and Southwest Hotels reservations and have locked in some decent flight credits, fare and square!
That's the beauty of Southwest's No Change Fees policy. As long as you're using the airline system for lawful activity, there's nothing wrong with checking for fare changes everyday to receive flight credit when prices drop.
That being said, if federal law enforcement like the FBI suspects one is using the airline system to conduct separate illegal activity, of course they will investigate the matter and airlines like Southwest will fully cooperate with the federal law enforcement agency in question in providing information related to the person's trip in question. Same for the state and local level.

I forget from an earlier thread did someone say they did successfully same day change their flight in order to have a long layover somewhere to visit a boyfriend or something?
In that case it was booked as a standard connection and then adjusted on the same day to extend the layover into a stop over.

If you are asking in hopes Southwest would offer such a pass I highly doubt it even after the last December mess planes are still booked to capacity (at least most of the 100 segments/64 one ways I have taken) this year have been full or almost full
If they did a pass like that they would probably get bad PR for never having available flights day of (to popular destinations)

If you change flghts, you get a new boarding spot, whatever it may be, when you check in
If A56 on that new flight had also just changed their flight, it could be given to you if the timing was perfect as the spots are re-used.
But the more likely outcome is a much later boarding position.
If you are A-list though then you can board at "A61" position between A and B groups even if you have a B or C position. (And it says A-list on your boarding pass)

Have to check the original receipt email.
Or I think it will show you the total to be canceled and give you one last chance to change your mind but I'm not 100%, I vaguely recall that you select everything to cancel a flight and then at the end it says $XXX to travel credit and you can confirm that you want to cancel.
Although funny thought - what if the buttons are "yes" and "cancel" - yes I want to cancel the flight. Oh no I just canceled the cancellation instead. It would turn into a Monty Python skit.
