This was probably before Southwest switched to their new scheduling system. The prior system was old and outdated and essentially only allowed Southwest to operate the same exact schedule everyday, not allowing them to adjust according to demand. The new Amadeus software enabled them to have a dynamic schedule, allowing Saturday or Sunday only flights as well as weekend only flights. So these days a lot of Southwest's schedule is consistent Sunday through Friday then all the flight times are different on Saturday since they seem to be a fan of Saturday only flights for those leisure markets. Southwest is first and foremost a low cost leisure airline, so they try to fly the peak travel days and times for particular routes plus leisure travelers typically schedule their vacations around the flight schedules since leisure travelers are more flexible than business travelers. -Andrew E DEN based | Southwest Passenger | Aviation Enthusiast

Look at the status tracker. That’s where you’ll see them.

The price hikes are no doubt related to the MAX 8 groundings. It has hurt Southwest significantly since they used more MAX 8s than any other airline. --Jessica

That is the guidance if you want to board together. Obviously as discussed at length that isn't stated in writing anywhere by Southwest. I had missed this thread earlier, I'm amused by the concept of "Schroedinger's Seat" @chgoflyer.

@MilesDS,
We actually do have a tool that does this! Check it out here.
You can reach it by going to Southwest.com > Click "Flight" in the upper right corner > Flight Schedules. Once you've reached this screen, just fill in the boxes and select either a "daily" or "weekly" view. You'll be able to see all the days we operate flights on your selected route.

One way to get rid of some would be to throw away the ones that have expired....#humblebrag....

Lately I've been packing my shoes and sneakers in a backpack - does the trick and frees up my bag. I love my Briggs & Riley. It's expensive but bc it contracts I can easily fit at least a week of clothes in there.

Will that be one of the things that will get fixed with the new reservation system? It would be nice to be able to book every possible connection on your website 🙂

What I meant to say is that "bought" points - so points you actually buy, don't count toward companion pass.
