Posted in Multiple discussion threads & each one of those discussion threads is about the "Companion Boarding pass/ priority boarding" & my post is specifically about the deceptive e-mail sent out in March 2020 by Southwest. I shared my experience about the whole thing (from Southwest e-mail to my boarding experience) with other Southwest travelers who are just as frustrated with Southwest on this same topic.

@SWFlyer007 why truth hurts you? I have only one username & I will continue to post here repeatedly to expose the deceptive companion pass boarding policy from Southwest corporate, bad attitude & racist attitude of the gate attendants. I know when they abuse their authority and ppower (who is going to argue with them when they can literally kick you off the flight for anything) in the name of so called "selectively applicable Rules" , and this is not the first time they did this.

One of the most BAIT & SWITCH policies by any airline! This is ridiculous. I've been an A-List member for 15 years & A-List preferred for couple years with a companion pass for my kid for the last 4 years. I read this as simple English & then the Southwest gate handlers at Phoenix Airport gate D-7 embarrassed me by first feigning ignorance about the policy & then clarifying that "the companion needs to be on the same reservation #" which they know is impossible!! Wow! Funny thing is I fly all over the US & only Southwest Gate handers at Orlando & Phoenix enforce & are happy to rub it in your face. I've flown & had my kid board along with me in so many other Airports like San Diego, Austin, Raleigh-Durham, San Jose, LAX, Ontario-LA, Orange County etc & they never make any fuss of a 8-year old boarding with me. And now Southwest rubs it in my face again! Not nice at all. "

Southwest e-mail from March 2020. ”We know getting more time with the people most important to you is everything. That's why we're spreading the love of one of our most-coveted A-List and A-List Preferred perks. Starting March 12, anyone on a reservation with an A-List or A-List Preferred Member can board when they do. That means everyone on the same reservation gets to board together and pick their seat earlier. Because we can all agree the more time you get with your people, the better.” B.S.! NOT TRUE!!!

Southwest Business Select & A-List preferred status is a joke. I've been an A-List member for 15+ yrs & an A-List Preferred for couple yrs & have flown on Business Select quite a few times. Southwest couldn't care less, they are like.... thank you for your money & being a suc*ker.
