Change fees for Southwest

[ColinCodyMom]

Hi everyone!
We booked southwest finally!! I was wondering if they charge you if you have to change the flight by a day or so. What if there is a difference in fares, either higher or lower, for the new day? We might be able to squeeze in an extra day at Disney and I just wanted to ask those who knew their policies. I looked on their site but it's not specific. It wants me to enter my info to find out. Thanks!!

You can change at liberty for no change fee, but you have to pay a higher price if it's currently priced higher. Last year, I just waited until the prices went down on a sale day, and then I added another day to our trip.
Good luck!

One of the best tips I got from this board is to book your Southwest flights as a one way flight for each leg of your trip.

That way if a Ding comes out for one of your flights you only have to change that flight and don't risk having to pay more for the other leg of your trip.
