If I purchase EBCI now when our flight is next Saturday..would I be just wasting money and most likely getting a B boarding section? We are on a Sold Out Flight from Providence that leaves at 7am with no prior connecting flight?

Any thoughts??

I don't know if its just my anxiety and my need to question everything right before a trip LOL

BTW we are a family of 4 and would like to sit together.
 
we don't use it and have never been below B10. I think it;s a waste of money at a week out but that's JMHO:goodvibes

Thank you for your advice..

I did just purchase it for our flight home..(so 2 weeks out) so we dont have to worry about getting up early the day before and going to the front desk at POFQ and have them check us in.
 
We got A60, B1, B2 and B3 the week before Easter on a sold out flight at 24 hour check-in. We got b17-B20 for our flight home on Easter at 24 hour check-in.

I think you'll be fine sitting together as long as you don't mind heading to the back.

Thank you, you have eased my nerves alot..

I am glad I did the one for the flight home though..so we didnt have to worry about missing check in time at 24 hours while at the resort

A poster on here about a week ago got B17-20 at the 24 hour mark. By the time they got on, there were only a couple of empty rows in the very back of the plane. It seems more and more people are using EBCI. We have 3 SW flights in the next 2 months, and I'm going to be paying close attention to the numbers available at t-24.

This was us! We were flying home on Easter Sunday and there was a LOT of families in the family boarding line between A and B boarding groups.
 
We are at WDW. :goodvibes We just flew in this morning on the 7:00 am SW flight from Philly, which was full.

We purchased our tickets & EB in late February. Our assigned seats were A23 & 24 and by the time we boarded we were in the 3rd row. I was pleased with our "assignment" and we'll see how we do on Friday's return trip.
