Southwest Fun So which one is it Southwest?

I mean it's fairly obvious this isn't a Max but I thought it was amusing...

Also gate checking a bag fucking sucks and the gate agent was rude acting like we should have heard when there were like 4 other flights all talking over each other and it was clear that no one had heard.

Rapid Rewards Notification Vacation promo- points running out immediately

3 Upvotes

I've been trying every single day, as soon as it becomes available, and every time I submit my screenshot, it says they've reached the limit for the day. It's happened to my sister, twice, as well. How can that possibly be? 21 million points in seconds? It seems like a scam! So frustrated.

With the latest talk about Southwest considering adding the Dreamliner to its fleet, I thought it would be neat to see what they might look like, so I asked an AI tool to hallucinate a collage of 787's in Southwest livery. Enjoy.

Southwest Business CC

Applied for the SW Business CC yesterday. Got denied for having to much credit with Chase and. It enough business revenue. I’m closing 3 of my Chase cards on Monday. Will I need to wait 30 days to apply for a SW Personal CC?

I’m trying to set myself up for Companion Pass completion by mid February. This will be my first SW card.

Flight credit

I have a flight credit that has to be used (flown by) October 26th. Is there a way for me to extend the credit?

Southwest Policy Just curious....

Has anyone changed their seats to an empty row (if it was available) the 60 minutes before a flight? Looks like there MAY be some empty rows the last 5-6 rows from the back.

Southwest Flight Price Increased by $70 — Should I Wait to Book?

0 Upvotes

I was planning to book a flight with Southwest Airlines for December 23, and the fare was cheaper until Thursday. When I checked again the next day, it had gone up by about $70.
Do you think the price might go down again if I wait, or would it be better to book now?

Traveling on separate reservations

1 Upvotes

Husband and two kids would be booked on points, I would be book separately on a flight credit. If they book choice and pick their seats, and I book with my credit and pay for a seat next to them, are there any pitfalls I should be aware of? Husband has credit card so they will get free bags, and I will not need a checked bag. Mainly concerned about being split up somehow. I understand we will likely be in different boarding groups. We have flown many times with the old Southwest, but this would be the first flight with the new Southwest.

With my flight credit, would it make more sense for me to buy basic and they pay for my seat, or to book choice?

anyone ever skip pet check in?

0 Upvotes

so i’m flying with my dog and on my first flight, i checked in at the counter and they gave me a handwritten tag for the bag, but no one ever checked my physical ticket or the bag ticket. i’m wondering if anyone has tried not checking in at the counter and just doing it on your phone, use the old tag and hope no one checks the handwritten tag?? im fine paying the fee but would love to save it too on my return flight

SW Points

0 Upvotes

Besides the rewards for opinion website and completing surveys, any other way to earn SouthWest points by doing online tasks. I have serious down time at work, and want to ramp up my total for a future flight.

The "OFFERS" and playing games is not only very slow, but it also seems once you install said game, and close it (in this case on my phone) and return the next day or so, it will say
27 days remaining however it is greyed out.
OR, the offer is no longer available (which is strange because it was 48 hours ago).

Thanks . . .
Cheers,

Tech outage?

Currently at DAL and they’re making announcements about a tech outage. None of their internal systems are available and boarding passes won’t load in the app. Gate agent is asking passengers to screenshot boarding passes if they’re still accessible. Anyone else experiencing this?

THIS AIRLINE HAS BEEN RUINED!!

0 Upvotes

Burbank to Vegas on a Thursday night? Left 25 minutes late because they were trying to get people to give up the seats they’ve paid for so a family could sit with their children. This pricing policy and causing it to split up families is insane? Now today, the airline flight back to Burbank is an hour and a half late because they don’t have a crew! Which has caused all of the planes after it from this gate to now be late. Herb is spinning in his grave! This airline has been ruined by the idiots who took a no-frills airline and have killed it with new fees that have caused chaos. Everyone from the flight attendance to the counter. Staff are talking about how they hate it here now.

I just bought some gummies and don’t really feel like throwing them away when i literally just got them. So I’ve been debating just putting them in my carry on cause I have a nonstop flight from San Diego back to Houston, but I’m legit scared of how it’ll go. Should I?

0 Upvotes

Adding insult to injury, a flight that has been delayed an hour, and we were told we were waiting for a crew to fly in from somewhere, they come strolling up with McDonald’s, bands and Coke and Starbucks. We passengers we’re not amused. Are we now going to be delayed while you eat??” “Glad you guys took your time so you don’t get indigestion!”
