What flight number to give ME

[lmcmanus1795]

Our flight coming home leaving Orlanda was booked through Southwest but is operated by Airtran. I am just not sure which flight number to give to ME because the southwest site says it is flight number 6373 - operated by airtran but if you go on the airtrain site it says the flight number is 1373....does anyone know?

Doesn't matter, they are linked together. I personally would give the Airtran number, since that is the physical flight you are on.

And I'd give the Southwest number, because that's the flight you booked.

I would give the Southwest number, that's where your reservation is. When they check you in, they have to go under Southwest.

Really? When I have booked via Delta, but was on a Continental flight, I had to check in at the Continental Desk, not Delta.

Honestly, in the end, the SW one will work just fine since.

I did this a few weeks ago, and you give them the Southwest flight number. When you check in at the resort to go home though make sure it shows you booked it on southwest so you do not pay the baggage fees. For us it showed to airline check in as an Airtran flight. I just showed them my reservation conformation from Southwest, and we were good.

I was just getting ready to ask this myself. Also when you check in at the airport do you check in at air tran or sw counter?

Air Tran for any flight operated by Air Tran. You will also go to the Air Tran gates at MCO.
