Hurricane Irma

My elderly parents are due to fly out of RSW this Sunday.  Southwest has offered to change itineraries free of charge up to 14 days from the scheduled departure.  I tried to change their flight to Tuesday.  The Southwest website clearly shows that Tuesday flights are available.  However, when I try to process this change a message saying "oops this price is no longer available" and suggesting that I go back to the same page on the website that I just used.  What is the problem?

Southwest's absymal IT, probably. Could be a "glitch," or it's also possible that the new flight has sold out and the system doesn't reflect that yet.

 

I'd recomend calling. Be prepared for a long hold time.
