Southwest Early Checkin
« on: October 20, 2013, 12:54:05 PM »
Thanks to Dan I got my companion pass  8) My whole flight to Chicago for me and my wife came out to 10 bucks! Is there a way to get the early check-in without paying the additional $25 per person? (my wife wants to make sure we sit next to each other) thanks

It ain't worth it. You won't have a problem. Just check in as early as possible on the computer. You'll be fine. Don't waste your money
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

i find it depends on route and several other random things i cant figure out.
I've checked in 23:00 before a flight (LGA-MDW) and was mid B's
another time i checked myself in (same route) and was placed at the end of A, while my wife who I checked in several minutes later was 20 spots ahead of me. go figure

I have flown southwest a few times. When ever you check in as long as you check in together usual you can sit next to each other as southwest as a first come first serve policy. Sometimes if you are one of the last ones to board the plane then usualy other people who are travelling alone will move around.

Agreed. Unless your the end of group C you will likely get two seats together.
