Question about Southwest

[Nermel9]

Hi everyone,

Will be traveling to Disney in a few days, and we always fly Southwest, so I know all about Early Bird and their boarding process and everything. The thing is, we have always flown nonstop flights, until now. How does it work if you have to catch a connecting flight? I have Early Bird, and I'll be printing my boarding passes before I go to the airport...do you get 2 sets of boarding passes for both flights? Does Early Bird check you in for both flights? I'm super nervous about this, even though I fly Southwest all the time, this whole connecting flight thing is all new to me!

Thanks in advance!

It checks you in for both flights at the same time. You will get both boarding passes.

Yes, it will check you in for both flights. You will get different #'s on each flight. You get 2 boarding passes. We change planes all the time, it is not a problem

Awesome, thank you!

Just be aware that depending on when your first flight lands (and if it is delayed), that the second flight may already be boarding when you arrive at the new gate. If your group has already boarding, just show your boarding pass to the gate agent and board.

Thanks...ugh I really hope my flight isn't delayed, I'm so paranoid about that! Keeping my fingers crossed!
