? re: SW online check-in on a connecting flight...

[ChristinaMouse]

Sorry to ask a question that has probably been answered a million times but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere...

If I am taking a Southwest flight that has connection (change planes), how does on-line check-in work? I will not be paying for early bird check-in so I'm looking to check-in at the 24hr mark. Will I get boarding #'s for both legs of the flight? Or, will I have to do on-line check-in at 24 hrs again for the second leg?

Thanks in advance for the answers to my question.

You will be checked in for all legs of your flight that day. So, you may only get B boarding for the first leg, but will probably end up with an A boarding for the next.......hope that makes sense.

When you check in online, it will pull up both segments. I can't remember if you have to select them individually or if there's an option to "print all." I remember the first time I had a connecting flight, I failed to print out both segments.
