I have been running in to this same issue with going to the Bahamas. I did a quick google search for same day PCR tests and found a place with results in 2 hours maybe you can find out like that near you. Im actually getting tested today and hopefully I’ll be on my way to the Bahamas on Thursday with my negative PCR in hand.

It’s too bad we can’t make ourselves our companion (if we have no one traveling with us) to get an Open middle seat.

You could try reaching out to Southwest on Facebook or Twitter in a DM and hopefully they can fix the spelling error (as long as it is a minor spelling error not changing the whole last name)

In my experience when I typed the companions info exactly as it appears on their RR account (including their address) it would auto populate their RR number once the companion is assigned. When you add the companion for the first time on the website you can’t add the RR number to the info being entered hopefully that will change though in the future.
for the sake of getting the RR number corrected I would reach out to reservations at 800-435-9792 or reach out on Facebook or Twitter and they can assist

First I wouldn’t check a laptop that’s just asking for trouble because if your bag were to be damaged your laptop most likely wouldn’t be covered by the airline
with TSA going through a bag I would rather them go though a bag if they think something suspicious was in the bag because if they just look at the top and move on and miss something bad I don’t need my plane going down because they missed something. I know TSA checks electronics at the security screening checkpoint maybe they look in checked bags at electronics as well
you can always share that feedback with TSA since SW doesn’t always control when the TSA goes through a bag.

For those with issues did you register for the promotion then book and fly by the deadline?
the thing that most miss is you needed to register first and if you already had a flight booked before the promotion came out and didn’t rebook it won’t count.
for those that qualify you should have gotten an email back when you qualified saying you will get a companion pass then this morning you should have gotten an email saying you can add your companion and that you were awarded promotional companion pass

When you are on the WiFi landing page in the hamburger menu you should see an option for A List preferred you would click it and log in to your RR account and it will connect you for free. Keep in mind A List folks still have to pay for WiFi

Have your checked the spam/junk folders on your email? If you have gmail I would also check the promotions/social folders in case the email went to the wrong place.
when searching your email try searching southwest or drug test (in case the email came from a non southwest email address)

I did some shopping through Rapid rewards shopping and the points posted to my account 3 days later if you have shopping to do you could do that or as others have recommended book a hotel and enjoy a night on the town and earn the points you need to get the Companion pass.

Agreed! Hopefully they will be able to remove the restrictions soon and we can get back to being the active forum we once were.
Thanks for sticking around though.

At least she made the cruise right?
I'd arrive at least a day before in case a flight issue were to happen (delay, cancellation, delayed bag)
Also if I'm going on a cruise I would carry a bag on because bags do get lost and I wouldn't want to wear the same outfit everyday on a cruise
As suggested you can reach out to Southwest via the contact us link or you can use the website on your delayed bag report.

My first guess is extra points My second guess is an extra bag (in case 2 free isn't enough) maybe priority bag delivery would become a thing? Maybe EB check in included in some fashion (if that happened they would have to add that to the anytime fare as well) I just hope they don't end up taking benefits away or make it harder for A List folks to use benefits if they do add some form of auto check in perk or same day standby perk or any perk for that matter. I'm also curious how much higher that price will be from wanna get away to new fare cat. Compared to anytime -Blake

You will earn Rapid Rewards points and the flight will count towards A List and companion pass Just another note keep in mind with LUV vouchers they don’t cover taxes so you will still have to pay a little bit on a Credit card or use a travel fund and the travel fund will cover taxes. Also note If you pay the taxes with a credit card the funds will keep the expiration date of the voucher should you have to cancel later. if you apply a travel fund the earlier expiration date between the travel fund or voucher will apply. -Blake

From time to time schedule changes happen and unfortunately sometimes those changes make it where you can't connect to get to your final destination and you will see that no flights exist when they still might exist you just might have to stay overnight somewhere else first. One example I am flying to NAS in January but SW only flies from BWI and FLL on the day I want to go but the flights depart those cities before I could arrive from SAT so I would need to fly to another city the night before so I can get to NAS I would look and see what city they fly to on the date you need and book 2 one ways or you could look in to other airlines if those options won't work for you. **Remember if the airline changed your flight and you don't like the new flight you can request a full refund to your original method of payment.** -Blake

Once you click book a confirmation number should have followed if you didn't get a confirmation number your reservation was most likely not confirmed. If the charge is pending it would probably fall off in a few days if the charge posts then you should reach out to customer relations on Southwest.com or you can send a message on Facebook or Twitter and hopefully they can fugue out what happened.

For the companion pass Southwest gave everyone a boost towards earning the companion pass and A List status this year i don't expect any more extensions because otherwise it would never end because next year some will say I couldn't use my pass in 2022 because this or that so since planes are full now I think they are done with extensions.

Are any of your reservations point to point also known as multi city (A-B-C instead of A-B-A)? If so I have seen the pricing error when certain fare classes can't be combined Also be sure if you are changing the date that your funds are still valid since funds expire a year from when you booked or the earliest expiration date of any travel funds applied (whichever date is sooner) -Blake

You could also bring a snack (no smelly food please 😜) or a book or something else to entertain you on the plane. southwest has free live tv and movies on the plane just be sure you bring a charged device with the Southwest app installed and be sure to bring headphones so you don’t disturb your neighbors. WiFi is $8 for all day access on each device in case you want to surf the web or get work done. WiFi can be slow or non functional from time to time. -Blake

Are you booking with points or cash (debit or credit card) If you are booking a cash ticket you can book the flight and add your RR number after booking and no log in would be required. If you are trying to use points you could book by phone by calling reservations 800-435-9792 You could also try to reset your password to see if that fixes anything. -Blake

While in normal situations EB is non refundable when I earned A List years a go for the first time they issued me a LUV voucher for the value of the EB so you could request that if they can't refund the fee to the card.

As mentioned you should be able to cancel on other airlines however not all airlines let you keep those funds some have cancellation fees where you may forfeit a set amount of money

Well if you have flown 0 flights so far this year you only need 15 so if you take a RT a week for the rest of the year you can keep your status. Might need 2 one week but with some of the $49 fares out there it wouldn't be too expensive or as others mentioned you could buy EB check in to help try and avoid C passes next year until you re earn the A List status. For me it looks like I will be 2 short of A List preferred so this weekend I'm taking a day trip to earn the ALP $39 each way -Blake
