What Happened to My Southwest Flights?

Last night I got the dreaded "Your revised flight itinerary" email from Southwest.  Uh, oh.  Never good.

 

Original:  Non-stop flights to and from Vegas, perfect schedule, three hour flights.  July 18 and 24

 

Revised:  Terrible schedule, no non-stops, one plane change outbound, two or three plane changes home.

 

The email has a link with 'available' options at same price (for same days I suppose), have three days to accept any of those options.

 

Was too tired to fight with it last night, slept on it.  This morning only error messages.  Maybe the site is crashing with people like me trying to work things out.  I won't even try to call for a while.

 

I guess mid July is too early to expect normalcy for visiting Las Vegas.  This trip was for our friend's birthday.  But will probably look further down the calendar to re-book.   Grrr.

I feel your pain my trip with Delta is now 23 hrs (on google flights) . When I try and look on the Delta site it says NO flights avaliable. However they have not sent any cancellations or even a change of flight e mail. Time will tell.

I am not optimistic about my end of May trip.

 

I also can't access 4 Queens site.

It seems the hotel web sites aren't helpful, but if there is a number to call you might get a human on the line.  They seem to have people working from home to check or book reservations, some do anyway.

 

The SWA web site finally came up.  I still had to call (and wait...), but booke new flights, nonstops, just a couple weeks later.   Late July into August, iffy.

 

 

Oops, never mind.  Today brought more changes to that good itinerary I worked so hard to get.  Seems they have cancelled non-stops to/from Vegas from Little Rock for the near future.  This change is slightly better, only one plane change each way and they auto assigned us the best of the lousy options.  

 

Now to decide whether to forget it, cancel and wait for better times.   Probably the better option.  We thought July would be safe, things back to semi-normal, but doesn't appear so.

That is why I am just sitting tight for now. My trip is still over a month away so .... fingers crossed.

Southwest has only changed my June flight twice so far.  Still non-stop.

I am hoping to go in August, but no specific dates. 

SWA keeps sending me deals. 

If we don't go in August our next window is Feb.
