Post all SW questions concerns, etc. here...

I'm looking for a promo code because I want to book our flight for May. The lowest it's gotten is $109 one way (MKE to MCO), but if it does go up a promo code would really help. thanks!

109 is a fantastic rate and I suggest you book it now. I rarely see promo codes anymore
 

Right now it's 129, but I'm going to check again tomorrow since supposedly the best days to book flights are Tuesdays in the afternoon. I DID actually find a promo code and I'll try that tomorrow too. Yep, I know 109 is a super deal but it doesn't hurt to go even lower. Thanks guys.

I live in OHIO and for the past 3 years I have seen nothing lower than 109.
 
I have a question about their "customer of size" procedure. We will be buying a 2nd seat for my husband, so 3 seats total. In their website it states: "The Customer who has secured more than one seat must be an active participant in preserving his/her additional seat. We encourage Customers of size to preboard to locate adequate seating and place the Seat Reserved Document in the adjacent seat."

Does this mean my husband should request preboarding or how will that happen? I am just concerned what to do if we get later B or C positions?

Can anyone recommend tips on getting a higher boarding position? This will be our first time flying SW...

- NO you do not want a higher boarding position because you will be the last ones on the plane and there is not guarantee you will find two open seats together.

Yes this mean he needs to preboard in order to make sure he can get two seats together. He needs to go up to the gate agent and ask for a preboard card.

Thanks! By "higher", I meant "better"...not used to the SW jargon yet. :)
 
Just some thing I noticed about check-in at 24 hours for the flight home. It seems that last week Disney did an excellent job of checking me in at exactly 24 hours because we were like B4-8. Thought that was pretty good considering they did the checkin, I had 4 confirmation numbers and we didn't pay for any extra fee through southwest or Disney. Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards

So Disney will check you in? I was not aware of that. How do you arrange it? Thanks!

Yep! If you are using Disney Magical Express you give them your flight information when you set it up (you can call their regular reservation number for this) and they will check you in and deliver your printed boarding passes to your room the day you check out. If you have an extra early flight then they can also reprint at the hotel airline checkin desk.

Since SW boarding assignments are based on how fast you check-in right at the 24 hour mark, we just used the SW app on our phone to ensure we checked in right at 24 hours sicne I wasn't sure how fast Disney would be.

So if I check in myself with the app, will disney still print my boarding passes for me or do I just do it at the airport?

Yes, they still print and deliver to your room with your Magical Express documents.
 
I just posted this on a different thread as well so sorry for the duplicate post. The August flights open next week but what is the time of day EST that you can book? I've read anywhere from midnight to 10am CST. Anyone know? I am calling SW today to inquire unless I receive an answer here!
