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

So my husband was telling me that their company's booking system won't be compatible with SWA's assigned seating system for months at least so they will have to book the flight and go in and select a seat....that is going to be a pain. Makes me wonder how many other business travelers are going to be impacted.

For a data point regarding status we just booked a flight for early May where strictly the status of A-list Preferred was pulling the benefit. This is mostly spelled out by SWA but I wanted to add our experience

My husband booked a Choice ticket (which would normally only be a Standard seat included with Preferred and Extra Legroom an additional charge). With being A-List Preferred he was able to at booking select for no fee an Extra Legroom seat as he should.

When it was time to add me as a Companion to the flight and select my seat this message popped up


So he was able to select an Extra Legroom seat next to him without charge. He was able to do this for the 4 flights total (2 to the location and 2 back home).
