Wanna get away

Erinmps

Hello, I purchased wanna get away tickets just because the price was appealing. Does that mean I don’t techmically have a seat on the plane?  I don’t want to be bumped, I need to travel for school and cannot miss. Please advise.  

thanks!

If you have a conformation number you are on that flight.  You need to check in for the flight 24hr before departure.

@Erinmps, Franktravel is correct.  Southwest does not overbook flights - see FAQs here.

They have open seating (pick any seat available), so get your boarding pass right at the 24 hour check in (set your calendar/alarm), especially if overhead bin space is critical.

 

If you like the price, you'll love the peanuts.  Safe travels.
