Reviews of Southwest Airlines

  • Checking in fiasco

    I checked my 10 year old son and I in at the exact same time through the app and Southwest put him 10 numbers away from me. When I tried to call to fix the situation the customer care person did not care at all. She was extremely rude and dismissive saying there was nothing she could do. When I asked if she could do anything about our return flights she said sage couldn’t do a thing and then started once again talking about our flight out tomorrow. I asked her if I could speak to someone else because she was not listening to me and was not being very kind. Then she said it wasn’t necessary and looked at our return flight. She told be that I could purchase and early bird check in for $40 per person and the total would be $80. I asked if I could speak with her manager. She now has had me on hold for 9 minutes. I’m guessing that she is hoping I will hang up without speaking to a manager. When I signed into the app I found out that the actual early bird check in is $20 per person and not $40 per person which proves she had no intention or desire to provide decent customer service. It would be nice if Southwest would comp me for this purchase to prevent this from happening with my child. He is only 10 and I will not check in without him by my side.
  • Its not what it used to be

    It was our domestic airline of choice because of flexibility and rates. I travel a lot. In the last 2 years there has been a lot of issues, mostly delays causing connection losses and stay overs in hotels. The worst was a delay that caused a connection in Atlanta to be boarding when our delayed plane was landing. I was in the back rows, there was no mention of the gate we arrived at or any information on connections. I asked the SWA attendant at the arriving gate if my connection gate was the same, her answer was it’s 20 gates down and they are closing the doors and she told me to run! This was late in the evening, no more flights. I am in my mid 60s with a bad knee, I ran as fast as I could, with my carryon in tow. My name was being announced, I would yell as I ran to other SWA gate attendants to tell them I was coming. I was having trouble breathing and my knee was hurting. It took me awhile for my breathing to subside, I received no assistance, no offer for ice for my knee. Once seated, we waited over 10 minutes for doors to close…REALLY? I did not have to rush? They waited for more passengers after I arrived.
    This was unnecessary. I am currently stuck on the runway for another flight that I received 8 texts for delayed takeoff times, then pushed up to cause a rush to the airport. We have been on the runway for an hour.
    Consideration to passengers is what is lacking on the new SWA. I hope the company realizes that real soon.
  • Early Bird Check In

    I purchased early bird check in to retrieve a good position on my flight. I have usually checked myself in 24 hours before my flights and always have gotten a A position. I purchased early bird in hopes of getting a good position without me having to check myself in. The day before my flight I went to see my boarding pass positions and my app said “time to check in” . That wording alone had me raise a eyebrow…???? I hit that choice and my boarding positions are B and the other in A54…if I was to get checked in automatically 36 hours before my flight automatically those were the best positions when in the past on completely full flights I have checked myself in and received A positions. I waited over 30 minutes to speak to someone only to hear “There is no guarantee of a good position with early bird check in“ ….wait…. I had to check myself in … I was told no…I got checked in early…if that was true…I suggest reword from “time to check in”to “we have checked you in please retrieve your boarding pass”…. I don’t believe I was checked in because 36 hours before my flight I should of gotten a message on my app to see my positions…. I was ripped off never flying again with Southwest.
    PS
    I would always tell people that when someone takes the time to write a review good or bad something definitely happened for someone to spend their time writing a review. Extremely disappointed with Southwest…
