@jquebby wrote: I purchased my ticket January 12, 2020 for travel January 14th.  I also purchased EBCI.  I was able to use it for my outbound flight but not for my inbound flight because I ended up changing my travel to leave one day earlier. Because the EBCI is non-refundable, Southwest is unwilling to give me a refund.  I have already taken to Twitter to express my displeasure about this and will never again waste my money for this product.  I will simply wait ask at the boarding gate when I arrive if there are any more A zone slots available.  I would rather pay $50 for that than waste the $25 for EB and get nothing.   The closer to 36 hours pre flight time you get, the worse the value of your EBCI. Why - because EBCI positions are allocated based on when they are purchased. If bought within 24 hours of flight time it is worthless.   'As far as EBCI refundability  goes, you yourself said "Because the EBCI is non-refundable, Southwest is unwilling to give me a refund." so you seem to understand that it is nonrefundable.   You do know what nonrefundable means -- don't you? You may not like it, but that is the rule. ... View more

The eventual safety of the MAX depends of course on what changes -- software, hardware and training -- will be required by the FAA and other governing organizations internationally before the planes can fly again.   While this situation certainly generates concern, unfortunately it's somewhat unrealistic to expect to never fly on a MAX aircraft again, unless one is willing to make significant concessions -- ones that approach the eventual complete reduction of air travel. MAX is the only aircraft Southwest has on order, and over time will represent the majority of their fleet. As the best selling aircraft in history (based on current orders), in 5-10 years it will be hard to avoid.     That said, Southwest has stated that in the short term passengers with concerns will be able to change their flights to another aircraft type when necessary.   As to seat width and overall comfort, various types of planes certainly differ, but Southwest is firmly on the higher end when comes to regular coach seating. I'm certainly not a fan of the new slimline "Heart" seats, but they do offer the appearance of better width compared to other 737 configurations. These seats are primarily in MAX and 800 aircraft.         ... View more

Keep up the additions at MSP! I like the Orlando service happening this Nov/Dec/Jan in addition to March/April.  LAS needs to get to year-round. Every season, I check the loads and they are outstanding. LUV IT! ... View more

Delta owns the connection between Memphis and Atlanta.  Boo! Life would be so much better if SWA had a direct flight. ... View more

Bill, I see that San Diego was cut from non-stop service. I cant believe the numbers were not there to keep this flight in service. Maybe San Franscisco but not San Deigo. Any chance they may bring this back? A 4 hour flight to San Deigo is a blessing when compared to a 6 hour flight. UGH!!!!!! ... View more

Will Southwest ever add back OAK to MKE and/or SFO to MKE non-stop flights?  This is big for the California kids and families going back and forth to College in Wisconsin!  ... View more

Let's have some LUV for SYR.  Airport is strategically and conveniently located; infrastructure is in place; catchment area stretches from Northern PA, NY Southern Tier, Central and Northern NY into Southestern ON.  ... View more

I can't wait to see one of these new MAX 8s landing at Pittsburgh. It's nice to fly on a real jet when I take SWA instead of those cramped regional jets the 'legacy' carriers use on most of their flights out of PIT. ... View more

My wish list:   ATL to SLC direct - I HATE that I have layovers but every other airline from ATL to SLC has at least one nonstop option per day. ... View more

Just joined the community trying to find some info on flight changes.  Seems while we are gaining a nonstop from Albany->Denver, we are losing the Albany -> Las Vegas.  It always seems to be a full flight, any idea on why it is being removed? Was trying to book our flights out for June and just found out that the non-stop is no longer listed.  Hopefully Southwest will reconsider. ... View more

Good story.  My youngest (4) is also obsessed.  He has travelled on about 5 trips, all via Southwest.  This year, he finally flew on the new Heart livery.  There we were in PHX Sky Harbor and he is jumping up and down at 9:30 PM telling everyone the plane has "letters on the side."  ... View more
