I wasn't referencing a conspiracy, but could not understand why it took two minutes to check in after the time allowed?
Never had that happen before, so I was checking to see if anyone else was having the same problem.

My wife and I have a flight on Friday early morning from Panama City Beach to Philadelphi PA. We always go on exactly the second we are supposed to for the 24 hour period to check in. For the first time, it delayed us by about 2 minutes and we ended up with high B, and C boarding for the two flights.
But it immediately asked us if we wanted better seats starting at $40/person per flight.
We have never experienced this and feel that Southwest is purposely doing this so people will sign up for the extra $40/person charge? Think about how much extra money they will get by doing this!!!
Out of principle, my wife and I will not fall into this ploy, so we will most likely not be able to sit together on the flights, and we will consider another airline to use moving forward.
Has anyone else experienced this?
