You knew this when you bought the tickets, right? If you care where or with whom you sit, why would you buy tickets where you can’t reserve your seats?

If you do get the chance to try this i suggest bringing enough people to create a crowded environment on the plane. Also try getting up and going into the bathroom on the plane and then back to your seat.
Make sure you are eating enough. Anxiety is hard to fight but it’s not unbearable. This isn’t the time for dieting though. You need s storing healthy body to win the fight. Stay strong and hearty, keep fighting, and you will win.

“Lets also give that to police and firefighters as well, and the retirees as well.” Absolutely. Military, police, firefighters, all who put their lives on the line for our safety. It world really show where SWA stands if they allowed all true heroes and their families to board first. I’d gladly step aside.

Not at this time. Neither do they require their vendors nor passengers to be vaccinated. For note at least SWA is putting freedom first. I’m vaccinated. I freely choose to get the vaccine. But I will not be forced to partake a medical procedure.

is this limited to persons of size? Can I buy two seats just to guarantee an empty seat next to me?

Another example of what southwest really cares about. Not the health of their employees nor the safety of their passengers. another reason to pay a little more and fly United where I can reserve me seat in advance and be safe.

There are no requirements but if you’re going to take an airline that doesn’t require their employees to be vaccinated to visit a high risk state then do yourself a favor and tested after the trip. https://covidactnow.org/us/virginia-va/

If it’s acceptable to you to expose your child to a high risk city on an airline that does not require it’s employees to be vaccinated, then you should probably at least get the poor kid tested after the trip. Chicago

I’m vaccinated but the more time I spend around unvaccinated people, walking Petri dishes for covid variants, the more I increase my chances of a breakthrough infection. here them is just another in the evergreen reasons not to fly southwest. I’ll pay a little more to fly United, select my seat in advance, and be safe.

You’re right TheMiddleSeat. Points don’t expire. Should have said Travel Funds expire.

Filling a DOT complaint will generate a letter to the airline that they can’t ignore.

Violations like this by airline employees should not be tolerated and should be reported. I suggest you file a complaint with the DOT. https://airconsumer.dot.gov/escomplaint/ConsumerForm.cfm

SWA should perma ban bully passengers that think the rules don’t apply to them. Everyone two years old and older has to wear a mask. If you or your children can’t or won’t do this you don’t get to fly. Southwest Airlines no longer accepts emotional support animals. If you can’t fly without an animal to comfort you, you don’t get to fly. None refundable tickets are nonreturnable. Points have an expiration date. SWA does not have reserved seats. If you have to sit next to someone you should use another airline. All airlines are making lots of changes to their flight schedules. It’s not personal. Some gate agents and flight attendants are always on a power trip. It’s not personal. Thankfully, most SWA employees are great! Sorry for the rant. Please add to the list😀

I don’t expect to see any mandatory vaccination requirements until we have a fully approved vaccine. All we have now are vaccines approved for emergency use.

I hear you. I paid extra for first class on United from the East coast to Las Vegas. Then United changed my nonstop to a connection through LAX. So I canceled United and bow I’m back to the flying Greyhound that SWA has become.

If the ever growing line of pre-borders and seat savers bothers you that much, fly an airline that lets you reserve your seat when you buy your ticket. For me, I don’t like SWAs free for all seating policy. I look at all other options before booking SWA. But SWA is usually the most convenient and lowest costs choice. I try to ignore the fiasco as far as I can and remind myself that, as the FAs sometimes announce, all seats arrive at the same time.

No assigned seats. You pay extra for early bird, and then wait in the terminal and watch the ever-growing line of pre-borders, line cutters, seat savers. Always a gamble I’m where you will sit no matter how much you pay for your ticket. I have found two ways to deal with this. Either, just don’t wanna bother you, which is what I’ve been doing. We’re flying on airline about you reserve your seat in advance..

I hope you will contact SWA and that they will do a better job of enforcing the masks rules for everyone. But as long as people continue to fly, even with children and infants, during the pandemic there is no real incentive for SWA to do anything but sell tickets.

I remember when SWA used to give off boarding instructions. As the plane taxied to the gate the stewardess would say, “Please remain seated until the Captain turns off the seatbelt sign. Then everyone jump into the isle and push and shove your way to the door. Remember, the harder you push the faster you’ll get out.” True story.

Don’t ever connect to free wifi anywhere. Bad guys can easily set up hotspots with the same name as the legitimate free wifi and steal all the information on your phone while you browse the SWA app or anything else. Grt an unlimited plan from your cellphone provider. Free wifi is never worth the risk.

IMHO SWA is one of the very best rewards programs simply because there are no restrictions. Like any program, you need to know the rules and yeah, you will lose your miles if you don't use them by the deadline.

"family obligations, deaths, " These two are optional, in my opinion. That is to say I don't have any family that would object to my not wanting to fly with a child during a pandemic regardless of the obligation or funeral. Everyone views things differently of course and everyone's situation is unique.

Yes. SWA should alter their mask policy to have anyone not properly wearing a mask on the plane or otherwise failing to follow the Flight Crew's instructions met by police when the plane lands. Whether you think masks are effective or not is not the issue. The issue is whether or not you choose to follow the rules. If you don't you shouldn't fly.

You knew or should have known the EB rules before you paid. As far a good deal? I use SWA because they are convenient. Factoring in the extra costs for EB often puts them on par with other airlines. The ever growing line of preborders, not taking a stand in seat saving, and not being able to reserve seats, is making me look more and more for other choices. If I fly before the end of March I will fly Delta for the empty middle seat.

Southwest Vacations is not SWA. Sorry that they ripped you off. if it were me I’d contact my cc company for a partial charge back fir the two missing nights.

I am sorry to see SWA stop the empty middle seat policy but only because I liked not having someone sit next to me. Anyone worried about the virus should probably not be traveling. Or fly Delta, at least through March.

Or you could just fly Delta. At least through March.
