Southwest Check-in Tips??

[CT Disney]

Hi Everyone,

Tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 I will be checking-in for a Southwest flight. Just wondering if anyone has any tips:

Should I pre-fill my confirmation number and name and just hit check-in as soon as my computer clock hits 1:30? Or, do you try to check in a few seconds before 1:30, and just keep hitting check-in until it finally "takes".

Haven't done this for a while and I've got myself all worked up

Thanks for any advice!!

I hit the check-in a few seconds early and it accepted it, but when I tried it for our next flight, I had to refresh a coupla times. YMMV

So, if you check in a few seconds too early and you get this message:

"Oops...The request to check in and print your Boarding Pass is more than 24 hours prior to your scheduled departure or less than 1 hour prior to departure flight time...."

Can I just hit the check-in box again (the one that's right below the oops message)? Or, do I have to refresh my screen somehow?
