SWA Please Tell Me it will be Okay!!

Oh no, SW says early check-n gets you to the front of the A line (1-30). Did you ask how you were at the end of the B line?

Not true:

What do I get?

Automatic Check-In

Whether you choose to print your boarding pass the day before or just hours before the flight, your confirmed boarding position will be ready and waiting for you. Now you can print your boarding pass as your schedule allows.

Better Boarding Position

We'll automatically check you in and assign your boarding position within 36 hours of your flight's departure - that's 12 hours before general boarding positions become available. While EarlyBird Check-In doesn't guarantee an A boarding position, it improves your seat selection options to help you get your favorite seat.

Earlier Access to Overhead Bins

Got bags? We've got room. By boarding earlier you'll get your pick of available overhead bin space.

B15 is not the end of B line, B60 is.

Thanks for the info. Still happy I got EB for an upcoming trip. I had a bad experience on AirTran a few years ago. My family of 3 was not assigned seats together; my DS was 2 at the time. What a hassle to get it changed. Customer service seemed shocked that we were upset that our 2 year old wasn't sitting with either parent.

Sorry. My mention of B15 was in reference to the OP's number in line. Just meant that booking EB wouldn't necessarily get her in line any better than that. My EB seats were B45-48 I think.

Yes, booking EB has to be better than not
I couldn't believe we were so far back. I booked day of opening. I guess lots of other people did too
