The end of the community feels like a funeral of friends some here I will miss others not so much and looking back at the good times and bad times here (The Spam attack that shut the community down, trolls, and the random laughable spam posts, The December Meltdown but not in red 😜) I will miss the chatting here but hopefully Southwest will reconsider in the future and relaunch a forum and maybe a new and improved one    to the many friends I made on here thanks for hanging out with me on here and in life   @TheMiddleSeat thanks for fighting back against the many trolls on here (2 in particular) your posts made my day when I was having one of those rough days.  ...

one thing I will say is thanks to this community I met several new lifelong friends and it’s nice to have a group of people who have the same LUV for Southwest and travel in general    Thanks to this community I met @DancingDavidE and many other great people who I’ve actually met up with in life and become great friends outside of the community such as pop up trips to Disney world or a hello in the airport on a layover. Something I never thought would come from an online community but I’m glad I was able to help people wherever I could with travel/Southwest questions and learn from others at the same time.    I will miss the community but hopefully for many it’s not goodbye but see you soon as you can find many of us on Reddit and other travel blogs and social media platforms.  ...

if you book a WGA ticket with a voucher you lose the transferability of the voucher, however you will not have an expiration date you can always book WGA+ to keep the transferability down the road should you need to use the funds on someone else later    also if you book a flight with the voucher it won’t cover taxes but you can book a flight pay the taxes immediately cancel and get a refund of the taxes to your Credit card and those travel funds will actually cover the taxes when you rebook so yes it’s an extra step to book cancel and rebook but that way it’s no actual money out of your pocket unless the voucher won’t cover the ticket cost    now with the promotion going on yes using the voucher will still count but remember you must register then book by tonight then fly by November 20th complete both flights  ...

@CatherineM wrote: Southwest customer service could not help the offer was FAULTY! That is why I reached out.  You had an offer that did not work at all.  There was no link to book There was no promo code, anywhere.  I wouldn’t have gone to all this trouble but I wanted YOU, Southwest, to know there was in issue! I did not receive this as a special private offer in an email or text,  It was on the official Southwest website!! You didn’t even need to log in to see it.    Every reply was insulting Like I couldn’t find the promo code on the app under “promo codes’       Please understand that everybody here are customers just like yourself. I apologize if you feel their responses or insulting. to reach Southwest directly you can click on the contact us link at the bottom of this page and fill out the form and someone will reach out to you as soon as they can ...

If I left my companion off the booking until like 2-3 weeks before my flight, am I running a serious risk of the flight selling out? If you go to pretend book the flight and try to book eight WGA tickets and see if you are allowed           Thanks to @bec102896  for the original idea about the "eight ticket check" method. @DancingDavidE  You can actually do 9 now 😂 ...
