Yeah I hate (at my airport):
Largest selection of destinations by an insanely huge margin.
Best on time performance.
Always on a 737, never a regional jet nor turbo prop.
2 free checked bags per passenger.
Same day flight changes for a-list.

Yeah, southwest really is the worst...
I hate free cancellations and flight credits that never expire.

Do not re-book! Activate the promotion and call Southwest and tell them to rebook it for you instead. They will honor whatever the price you had purchase the tickets before.
This is YMMV. Just wasted two phone calls and got a hard no from them even though my flights are in March. So much for any good will earned from their recent issues.

If you fly once or twice a year it will be free if Visa is used frequently.

I just called and they told me they can't do that, is it possible your prices were the same as the original booking?

Southwest isn't good for me because I have anxiety around flying and the boarding process + no assigned seats makes my heart rate rocket. I will still fly them if they are majorly cheaper, but early bird only eases my mind so much. Yay claustrophobia!

Got the companion pass on Friday and had already booked flights in February for the future. I set the companion on the website and then called in asking to refund the points I had used on the new companion. Done in 10 minutes.
