SW just added more cheap seats for my Oct. flight !!!

[popriv]

All the morning non stop flights were sold out for my October 24 flight to Orlando.
I had to book a flight for more $$$ with a stop in Baltimore or risk an even worse option…

I've been checking every day and they just opened up more of the cheap seats on a morning direct flight from PVD to MCO…

Yahooo,,, I now have about $180 credit at southwest that I probably won't use but at least I now have a non stop flight…. arriving at 1:00pm instead of 4:00pm

My fellow travelers will be very happy…

E-mailed SW to ask about my EBCI for my original flight.. will it automatically be applied to my new flight. ???
I didn't see any options/reference to my EBCI when I made the changes ….

I was waiting for more of the " sold out " cheap seats to be added but the general opinion was to grab what I could for a flight now…
sounded good but had I waited one more week, for a trip the last week of October, I would have saved about $150 total on the 4 tickets.
Sooo, they didn't add another flight but opened up more of the cheap seats AFTER they were listed as Sold out..

Still happy to get the non stop, just putting this info out there in the hope it helps someone…

If you did a change flight, not a cancel and rebook, EBCI should still be there. To check, go to manage travel and lookup the confirmation code. You should see an EB listed next to the people who had purchased.

I checked and the " EB " is next to our names…. Great! thanks again…
