Extend expiration of Ticketless Travel Funds on SWA???

[kristenrice]

Doh! I just booked our flights this week and now the return has dropped by $58. I already changed the flight and now my mother and I each have the $58 credit under our names. The problem is that our next trip won't be until June 2016. Is there a way to extend the deadline, for a fee? I looked on the website and can't find any information.

Thanks!

Once the TTF expire, yes, for a fee you can extend them six months. Once.

But that fee may be more than the credit is worth. I think it's $75 or $100 each.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Bummer...I'd watched the prices going up and thought I'd lucked out when they went back down to $188...now they are down to $130 today

It is good to know that you can do this, and I have done it before. Right now I have $220 for DD that expired. So it will be worth it for me to pay to extend it. You have a year after expiration to extend it 6 months, I believe. So you want to time your extension to when you can use it, but remember it takes up to week for it to go thru. The GOOD news is that when you extend it, it becomes a LUV voucher, that anyone can use. No longer is linked only to the original passenger. So I will get 1/2 my $$ back, at least.

Wow, I never knew that. Good to know! I have almost $400 in credits for my DD that I will not be able to use up completely before they expire, so depending on what's left, I may pay to extend it.
