tip Posted May 26, 2021 #1 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Does anyone know when Southwest Airlines will be accepting reservations for the remainder of November? For quite some time now, they are only booking through November 5th. I tried calling them, but the wait time was estimated to be two hours!😞 I have had better luck speaking with a live human being at the IRS!. LOL!

CruiserBruce Posted May 26, 2021 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Did you look on the CruiseAir board? There is a Sticky at the top of the page for this info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekekelso Posted May 26, 2021 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2021 We are currently accepting air reservations through November 5, 2021. On June 10, 2021 we will open our schedule for sale through January 5, 2022. This date is subject to change! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorex Posted May 26, 2021 #5 Share Posted May 26, 2021 And....the answer is always available on the Southwest website: https://www.southwest.com/air/flight-schedules/ I suggest Southwest customers bookmark the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BoozinCroozin Posted May 26, 2021 #6 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I had to look it up also. Set a calendar reminder because we have to book return flights Thanksgiving weekend. I am expecting it to be $200+ one-way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between people going on vacation like crazy in the second half of 2021 and the people who didn't see their family last year, the demand for Thanksgiving is going to be...insane. Absolutely insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted May 26, 2021 #8 Share Posted May 26, 2021 If I may ask another Southwest-related question, as I haven't yet had an answer from them: We have a future credit which we want to use for our September flights. Where/how in the booking process do I apply that? I tried using Promotion Code box, it did not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you select the flights and add the same people as the voucher, there is a link/button that asks if you have a flight credit. Click that, add the traveler's name and the code, and the credit is added to the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are going to be high. Whatever it is, I have to use my SW credit. I have $600 for 3 people. I only need 1-way flights. I expect them to be ~$200 1-way. Regardless, I need them and they will be purchased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BoozinCroozin Posted May 26, 2021 #12 Share Posted May 26, 2021 You can even do a test booking to see how it is done. Just don't finalize the purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a $200 credit, good for use by three different specific people. Vastly different situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vastly different situation. You are correct, I should have been far more precise. I have $600 in credit for the 3 people in my family of which each one of us is entitled to $200 each on flights that have to be used by 01/19/2022.

Rare FlyerTalker Posted May 27, 2021 #15 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I wrote to remind folks...these credits are not fungible across individuals, and for some airlines, they are not even combinable for one person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
