All things Southwest Airlines

Thanks @CPT!

I usually take a screen shot of page that has the rebooking info. You have to keep track of that stuff.

Good idea trey, thanks.

I see that my return flight has now gone back up before I could save that $5, lol. There's a different flight that leaves Hobby a half hour later but only has a 35 minute layover in Dallas Love vs. my 1 hr. layover. Anything under 45 minutes for a layover scares me so I think I'll just keep watching my original return flight especially seeing that if I would fail to make that connection in Dallas, I'd be sleeping in the airport since it's the last flight to Pittsburgh that night. Not worth the $41 savings at all!

Another factor is if you buy the Early Bird check-in. I'm convinced it's order is chronological based on when you buy the EB pass. When you rebook, you get sent to the end of the EB check-in line. You may be swapping A18 for A44 when you rebook.

Not a problem for me trey, I'm too cheap to buy EB, HHH. Hasn't been a problem getting a decent seat checking in right at the 24 hr. timeframe but you know Murphy's Law....now that I've said it out loud I've probably just doomed myself!

I believe this is correct. SO I sometimes don't rebook if the savings it too small.

Attachment 2694

I may have been booted back, but out of spite I got the $10 back for rebooking my flight as the fare went down. Take that Southwest! :bounce:

Also, if you don't want to sit by babies, you're better off with B1 instead of A60.

Can't you always move if one gets close to you during family boarding?
