I am not seeing the value in the purchase of this feature as the last time I flew SW I got B-16 checking in without Early Bird. It appears from the web info I could find, if I paid $40 or $50 I would be assured an early A boarding position, but paying just $15 apparently is not sufficient. I am feeling very misled about this supposed convenience option. RR-xxxxxxxxx You may want to edit your post so that RR# isn't visible. That's not a great result, but I'm not sure it isn't atypical with A-list and other factors. Hopefully it would tend to be a little better. The question shouldn't be where did you land, but rather where would you have been without the EBCI - we can't answer that question unfortunately as we don't know if you would have checked in right at 24 hours, how many other passengers had this flight as a connection, and other reasons that it would vary from flight to flight.

Thanks for this info, my boarding pass does not state early bird! I did contact SW via twitter!

Same situation as the original poster, it's a determination TSA makes, perhaps randomly.
