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

But if you pre board, they assume you aren't physically capable of performing the extra duties of the emergency exit row and won't let you sit there. At least, that's the current policy.

Yes, but the poster just asked which rows are extra leg room. That’s all I was answering. Maybe you meant to tag that poster with that info, not me.
 
Here is an alternative to canceling and rebooking a basic fare if points decrease.

1. Upgrade the basic fare to a WGA+ fare using the change flight feature (you are not allowed to change but can upgrade). Note: you will need enough points in your account to make the upgrade.
2. After you complete the upgrade, change the flight to the discounted basic fare. (Since it is now an WGA+ fare you are allowed to make a change). All the excess points will go back to your account.
I just want to give you all a heads up: this method did not work for me earlier this week. I have several upcoming flights on SW thru January - all Basic fare, all on points and all still with open seating. I have used the method above to rebook my Basic fares on points a few times and it has worked great. This week, one of my flights dropped and I tried using the above method. I changed to Choice then went to change it back to Basic but I kept getting an error. It could have just been a system glitch/error thing or maybe they caught on? I don't know. But I got tired of trying so I went ahead and just canceled the whole thing and rebooked to get the lower Basic fare.

I did it yesterday and it worked fine for a January flight.
