I got a text saying my flight was canceled about an hour before departure time. They replaced my nonstop flight in the morning with a red eye flight. I quickly booked another flight on Delta that had more decent times. Within 15 minutes they reinstated their canceled flight. I called SWA and even the representative was like I’ve never seen this before. I requested a full refund back to my credit card but since I booked choice, he said they’ll have to put it back as SW credit. I refused and said I wanted it back as cash since it was their fault. I’ve already started a chargeback. Any other recourse I can do to get cash instead of credit? And for all those who are well, why didn’t you book a fully refundable flight? Wasn’t like I was anticipating them canceling my flight for 15 minutes while I scrambled to find a new one dip$h1ts.

What’s the point of southwest now forcing you to choose a seat when they’re just going to switch it anyways. I booked a flight and it changed my boyfriend’s seat by 3 rows each time.Is it the end of the world? No. But it’s the principle of the matter. Like why put this into place if they’re just going to change it anyways???

If I get hired at SWA, but my current employer books me a trip on SWA, will SWA be aware or can I get in trouble if I don’t want Southwest to know I have another job?

Is there any promo code working on Southwest Airlines while booking flight? If someone has a promo code please do share. I would be thank ful
