Same happened to me, I bought a iPad and have no problems now watching movies. I suspect the problem is the android device was an older outdated version.

My mother-in-law (age 96) does not plan to fly again. She has over 8k points in her rapid rewards account. I on the other hand plan on booking a flight next week or two and do not have enough points for the flight.
I believe I can book a flight in her name and her points with a wanna get a way plus fare, cancel a day or 2 later and then transfer the points into my RR account free of charge.
Can someone confirm this?

I had the same issue with my Samsung galaxy tablet, bought a iPad and the problem disappeared.

I never could understand why people use 3rd party sites instead of direct booking for hotels, flights, cruises and car rentals. Seems like it's just asking for a problem.

Chase is the place, if they won't help consider it a lesson learned.

The only time I buy early bird is when I think I might forget to check in 24 hours early or I am not able to. That being said, whenever I pay for it, I am not disappointed with the boarding position I get which usually is in the B's.

In my experiences over the last couple years, Upgrades have been available about 75% of the time. That was purchasing them at the check in desk or gate desk.

Happened to me early this year and when I got home, I wrote Southwest a very polite letter stating what happened and they gave me and my wife both $250 vouchers. The 1-day delay did not bother us as we got to stay another day on vacation.

Just looked at my profile and don't see where TSA info would be entered.

I just applied for TSA precheck and have my appointment in 3 weeks. I have a few flights booked over the next 6 months and was wondering once approved for precheck how do I prove it at security?

I believe that if you are in a wheelchair, you will be preboarded with one companion.

Just read that SW just announced that credits from cancelled flights will no longer expire. I assume they mean travel funds?

Looks like you wasted your money since you were eligible for family boarding. Expensive lesson learned.

My wife and I both have a SW voucher for $250. I just booked a one-way flight for $297. I was able to use 1 voucher and thought I could pay the remaining balance of $47 with the other. I was not able to use the 2nd voucher, so I used my credit card. Wondering what the policy was that would not allow me to use a 2nd voucher for the $47.

There are no tricks, just check the SW schedule and pick what works the best for you and your group. There will be no additional charges for you since SW changed the schedule.

Another reason to always try and book with points. I know conventional wisdom says it's a bad idea to buy points because you pay slightly more, up the upside is that it is 100% refundable. I look at it as travel insurance.

45% would be the best I have ever seen. If you can buy points for less than 1.5 cents a point it might be worthwhile.

Your supposed to wait 24 months but I have reapplied after 20 months and was accepted. 40k points is not that great a deal, I would wait for a better one if I was you.

If you booked with points you will not be eligible for the offer.

I know someone that purchased a flight with a gift, covid hit and they cancelled and never rebooked later. Travel funds expired, money lost.
Never would have happened booking with points.
