Ticketless travel funds Southwest

[donaldtutter]

How many ticketless travel fund confirmation numbers can be used per reservation on Southwest? I thought I read here that it was only 2, but someone just told me you can use 3. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.

I would like to know for certain also about this. I was thinking two. Of course, you can book each way separately and each person separately and therefore "extend" any ticketless fund credits.

I did it in July and you could use a maximum of 4 methods of payment. For example, 3 SW credits plus 1 credit card. Or 4 SW credits if that gets you to your total. But not 4 SW credits and then a credit card for the balance.

If you use 3 or 4 SW credits on a flight, then cancel that reservation, it becomes 1 credit under that new conf #. But the credits/ticketless funds will still expire on the same day as the original. I had like 8 $15 credits so I would use 3 plus a cc on a new refundable flight, then cancel that res. I would immediately get a credit on my cc and then I had one $45 ticketless funds instead of 3 $15 ones. Do this a couple times and you can use all the little credits and perhaps get a whole flight for free.
