Oh I forget that priority card people can do that
. Good luck!!!

I was assuming the 27877 was for 2 people. because the flight was only 12708 points/pp. or do they add the points from the flights to and from together for each person, so the total for round trip was 27877/pp and thats why I don't see anything for the return flight? I guess that would make more sense since 12708x2 is not 27877. I've never really paid this much attention before, but I've never made this many changes either.The way Southwest does credits with points can be confusing, so please don't feel stupid! When you change flights or get a credit with pts, the original pts will be refunded and the new lower price pts will be deducted. If I'm understanding correctly, you originally bought a flight for 12/3 for 30,358 pts/pp. When you changed to the 12/2 flight, 30,358 pts/pp were refunded and 24,953 pts/pp were deducted for the new flight. When you then changed flight times for 12/2, you were refunded 24,953 pts/pp and charged 27,877 pts/pp. They not only add back all pts for a credit and then deduct all pts for the new flights, but they also do it for each person, which is why you see 2 redemptions for each of the purchases as well as the refunds. I think it'd be easier for them to just subtract or add the difference when changing a flight or getting a credit because it does get confusing the way they do it. Hope this helps and that I'm understanding what you did
Yes! We are booking for MA school vacation week in April. We have some LUV vouchers to use then we're booking the rest of the flights on points. My MIL isn't sure if she can come with us yet so we're going to book her on points but on a separate confirmation number because we are going to buy early bird. It's going to be crazy...hopefully my hubs is going to be able to handle the pressure!Is anyone else stressing out about Sept 16th yet? I have a list of 8 different flights I need to book through April 24th (kids coming from different cities times 2 trips) and it is making me lose sleep. Thanksgiving and Christmas flights were insane at the release time this year (and stressfu!) and I am worried that this release will be more of the same.
It looks like each entry is for a round trip flight 12/3-12/5 or 12/2-12/5, based on the text shown in your screenshot.
Yes I am stressing especially if it is a late release. I just told my husband to block his work calendar for that day if I can't book flights before I leave for work since I can't do it at work. We have different scenarios of which flights I want under different accounts. I'm going to have to do some mock bookings with him to show him what I want!Is anyone else stressing out about Sept 16th yet?

I've never not seen the signs offering upgraded boarding on any SW flight I've ever been on. And I've never been denied when I've purchased for myself. I've had A1 on full flights from MCO and A4 on full flights to MCO. The only way they wouldn't have it is if 15 people bought BS fares.
It's worth a call, but I wouldn't count on it. If it was weather they aren't obligated to do anything, but they may if you ask nicely.
Be sure to use flight credit, not points.
We are booking for MA vacation week as well- (flying out of PVD). I'm hoping the evening flight out on Friday is the same price or cheaper than the early morning Sat flight; I would rather that and stay at the Hyatt at MCO Friday night and start our way to WDW on Saturday fully rested. Easter pricing is probably going to throw all my plans off!
so far ALL of our flights have been booked with points......we have right now 242k points and I haven't "paid" for a flight in almost 5 years...
Unless you have a promotion that specifically includes award travel.
PP was referring to in general. Your specific offer explicitly includes award travel. That explicit inclusion overrides the normal rule that only revenue flights count towards A list.so far ALL of our flights have been booked with points......we have right now 242k points and I haven't "paid" for a flight in almost 5 years...
and I earned A List last year...and the bonus to earn it again for next year, they were counting our 2 current flights towards the 4 I needed and those are all bought with points...
so
We fly out of PVD too. The decrease in direct flights to and from MCO is the worst. I don't mind waking up at the crack of dawn to go to Disney but it's the worst flight time for coming home. We chose the last direct flight earlier this month and didn't get home until almost 2am after a bunch of delays. Our poor toddler was such a champ.
I'm stressing about timing as well! Historical releases have been anywhere from 7 am - 10:30 am, so looks like I'll have the webpage open on my computer all morning!
