I went ahead and switched flights to be on the safe side even though it cost me ~8k more in points. Tomorrow is 5 days out so I will know for sure if the original flight is canceled. If that is the case, what are the odds that Southwest will give me the extra points back? TIA I'd guess the odds are pretty poor. Why? Becasue you made the change voluntarily on your own. If you'd been on a flight that was cancelled, you would have been allowed to take any seat avaiable on your routing over the next two weeks - at no additinal cost. Southwest won't refund the points difference. Unfortunately, that's the price you pay to have better selection (prior to being among many looking to rebook). Sometimes, depending on time restraints on your travel, that's the right decision.
