I Have A Credit With Southwest....

[summerrluvv]

I booked tickets and cancelled online so I now have a $275.00 credit. Does anyone know if it's transferrable to another person?

I'm reasonably certain it is. You can't sell it, but a couple of years ago one of my friends had some Southwest credit that was going to expire; she was able to make a reservation in my name, and I had NO problem flying.

I would say if it was a non-refundable ticket then the credit is only in your name. Just call SWA and find out and let us know the official answer.

Yes it is transferable. I had a credit (from a Ding! refund) that I used to purchase tickets for my MIL for our August trip. Anyone can use them. You don't even have to book the fare for them. They just need to know the confirmation number and the name the credit is under.

Now was your ticket a refundable one or non-refundable?

Cool, that's what I thought since the names for the passengers were blank to fill in when rebooking with the credit. I actually cancelled once, rebooked with the credit then cancelled again. I bet if I list it on ebay it will get pulled though won't it?

Southwest credits are currently being sold on ebay and are bringing almost the value of the credit at auction close. Just do a search for southwest credit.
