I never knew DDF was a segula for shidduchim  ;) It's definitely a segulah for a honeymoon (See @Yehuda). He has one lucky wife. Not even dating now...

Well when my wife's companion pass expires, I'll probably get one for myself :)

Fly from ISP/PHL, lots of nonstops.
Bonus perk is fewer delays than EWR/JFK/LGA.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Not sure where ISP is, but PHL is a good 1.5 hours from the city w/o traffic. Plus EWR rocks with off-site parking and more importantly when your mother's driveway is 15 minutes away. ;)

Anyone know how to change a DOB on a SW reservation? I can't seem to figure it out - is it possible? (I can't cancel and rebook because the price has changed...)
Thanks!

So I churned the SW card and got the points used a different FFN.  now what's my next move- I call southwest and asked for the new FFN to be merged with the old and it will count towards the companion pass? Thanks.

AF just hit. I should have 30 days (even after the next statement closes) to close the card and get it refunded, right?


Oh and didn't see your comment, Vosizderneias, but thanks for telling me where ISP is.

Can anyone give some advice?  I have about 100,000 SW miles and never fly the airline. Doesn't seem to be very lucrative - Am I wrong or just calling the wrong people? I thought I would buy gift cards but they are only $50 ones or $100 ones for stores I don"t shop. Thanks!

Wrong people. I love flying NYC-DEN RT with my wife for a total of ~15K.

Also, it's usually a very bad value if you spend your points to by GCs. If you're into it, sell your points for a better value.

You won't get much more from a broker.
