When you have these issues do you verify that you have all other internet connectivity? As mentioned in the article linked below, lots of customers have issues when their phones automatically connect to airport wifi and don't fully complete the login process which often requires clicking some sort of "I agree" button. For this reason (and many more) I never automatically connect to public wifi. Just a thought, perhaps not related to your issue.

@JamesIshikawa Thanks for coming back to call me names and complain about something that happened 4 years ago. Good content!

Yes, if gate checked it will be returned to the gate. Confirm with the gate agent when you get the tag for it.

That's not a fun situation, but it is a situation that can (and does) occur on any airline. Good luck with your future travels.

I would respectfully submit that the complaint has nothing to do with preboarding, it has to do with the rules in general.
Leave the preboarding people alone.
The poster mentioned an issue with the number of people boarding with a preboarder. You, not the poster you responded to, mentioned anything about the actual preboarders.

Your two friends are wrong. They had no business questioning people about preboarding.
The behavior being mentioned, boarding with more adults accompanying a preboarder than allowed and boarding out of assigned position (not preboarding) is not allowed and should be questioned by gate staff. Yes, people can request to preboard and cannot be questioned, that is not the behavior that was described. The poster's point was so many people attempt to not follow the rules it makes staff miserable and I believe that.

That's very odd. No error? It just doesn't go through? Have you tried while logged in and logged out of your RR account? Try without a RR number on the reservation?

As long as you changed the flight and did not cancel/rebook EBCI generally remains on the reservation. There are some exceptions listed in the FAQ copied below. If those do not apply to you you're good to go. You can contact Southwest if you really want to confirm.
If I have EarlyBird Check-In and choose to change my flight, will the EarlyBird Check-In transfer as well?
EarlyBird Check-In can be transferred only if the new flight departs more than 25 hours from the time of the change. If the new flight departs in less than 25 hours, then you will lose your non-refundable EarlyBird Check-In purchase. Additionally, if the change to your reservation involves a new city pair(s), you will need to contact us to have the EarlyBird Check-In transferred.

Available or not, don't do it...redemption rates are horrible. The only good use of Southwest Rapid Rewards points is Southwest flights.

Alternatively, you could look at Southwest hotels. Earlier this year I was able to get 10,000 points for less than $250. Just depends if you want to open another credit card and want to spend the required spend.

If you don't currently have a personal card you can get one and as long as you have not earned a sign up bonus from a personal card in the past 24 months you would be eligible for the sign up bonus.

Interesting as that is the one station that repeatedly gets called out for being slow. Hopefully this is a permanent improvement. Thanks for the report.

Duplicate post. It appears you received an answer in another thread.

That's not how it works. Only the person flying will see flights listed in their accounts. You purchased the flights with your points, but there's no record of the trip saved in your account. Secondly, the companion pass holder, which seems like you are, has to be flying then they can add the designated companion to the trip. Unless your daughter is a CP holder there's no option to add a free companion on this trip. You could use your points to purchase a flight for the husband if you want.

Try to book tickets for the flight you want. If there's availability to purchase then there's availability for standby. Things can change up to 10 minutes prior to departure though so there's no definitive way to answer you question ahead of time.

2) Is the total TQP that one can earn from charging on SWA credit card still 15,000? I (unfortunately) charge a lot on my cc, thus most of my flights are reward flights. I sure would love to have that A list status.
Thanks, y'all!
You didn't mention which Southwest credit card you have, but some do have the following benefit:
Earn 1,500 tier qualifying points (TQPs) toward A-List status for every $10,000 spent in purchases annually–with no limit on the amount of TQPs you can earn
Check your Chase account and card benefits to confirm your specific offers.

It should not matter, either should be able to take care of it. If you have no reason to go to the check-in counter, I would take care of it at the gate.

If this is a life threatening issue you should definitely be bringing your own water onboard. There are often flights that are too turbulent to serve beverages, what would you do in that situation if you were relying on being served?
There is a time during the flight when the cabin needs to be prepared for landing and in this instance it appears you didn't request a drink until that time, when it is too late to begin service. As you disagreed with how this was handled, you can send your feedback regarding this issue to Southwest, use the contact us link at the bottom of the page.

Spring break, Las Vegas (or anywhere), on a Sunday... that's pretty high demand so it's not completely surprising Southwest does not have any Wanna Get Away fares available. Southwest is betting it can sell those seats without discounting them. You can book an Anytime fare and cancel it if a WGA fare becomes available or book a different date/airline.

Did you book the trip as one reservation and when you booked it the system said you have a connection? If so, your bags will be transferred for you and you just need to get yourself to the next plane.
