SWA FF reward restrictions

[mickeydonald]

Does SWA restrict the number of reward seats on a flight like other airlines? I heard they did not but I am not sure. The flight coupon listed blackout dates but nothing about capacity controls...I'm not able to check our dates as they have not starting selling seats for March yet..

except for the blackout dates you mention....it is my understanding that if a seat is available on a flight any other day, you can "phone" and get a "locator" ......but you have to present the coupon at the check in counter where they "add" the information .....about the flight...

You are correct, RR seats are not capacity limited and have very few blackout dates. You can't (currently) reserve on line, you need the voucher (ticket) they send you and you can't use the automated checkin machine (you're not ticketless).

Excellent if you have to fly on dates that discounted flights aren't available.
