Has anyone managed a 24" suitcase as a carry on, on a southwest flight? I think I remember seeing that was an acceptable size; just curious if the reality of carrying on that size luggage was truly a non-issue.

Anyone has Southwest Airlines drink coupons that they can share? Thanks a lot!

Tips on flying in Southwest - going to book my first flight with southwest but have heard that sears are not assigned and the system works a little differently. Used to traveling in delta and United.. so not really sure what to expect from southwest. If I buy a ticket, can I still not get a seat assigned to me? What are the other differences?

Help! I recently purchased a wanna get away ticket through Southwest for a business trip that was about $850. I was asked to cancel the trip due to other work issues in my local area. As luck would have it, there's a strong possibility that I landed a great new job and they need me to start right away. The credit is under my personal rapid rewards account. Ideas to help me avoid writing a big check to my company??

For both United & Southwest, what is the dog stroller policy? 1) can you bring it in addition to a personal item and carryon? 2) can you gate check and get it back on the jet bridge (ie not on the baggage claim)?

Chase Freedom Unlimited vs Chase Sapphire Preferred credit card?

I am starting for a company that lets you use your own card (and get reimbursed) I am in sales so going to lunch and dinner will be what I use the card for. I currently have a city double cash card since it was 2% on everything but now I want to lean into the dining. I know the Sapphire Preferred has a great early bonus but I never like annual fees for cards.. thoughts? Pros/Cons long term? I do travel AND LOVE southwest.

Ryanair and EasyJet (and other budget airlines in Europe) seem too good to be true…are any of them actually tolerable? Do I dare? (Point of reference, domestically I am fine with Southwest but refuse to do Frontier or Spirit. Please compare.)

Has anyone recently made the decision to move out of Chicago? If so, where are you moving and why? I'm most likely moving to a medium sized city in the southwest and am unsure about whether it's a good move. I'm mostly worried about what I'll miss out on. I'm moving for personal family reasons.

Decided to take a trip last minute, and try to use points(via chase/southwest) for the hotel. I apparently can only use them a week in advance, is there a way around this?

Southwest left bags in the connecting city. We had tickets to see a concert with a tight dress code and can’t go now because we arrived in travel clothes. What compensation can I expect and what’s the process?

I currently work as a HR Manager in Southwest Louisiana/ near the Texas border. Currently, my salary is $69,000 a year. I work for a smaller Casino Resort property with approximately 480 employees. Do you all feel this salary is fair? I feel really feel significantly underpaid.

Ok road warriors, looking for input. I’m platinum on AA, about to hit platinum pro, likely to make exec by end of year. But I’m a bit fed up with some of my recent experiences and considering a switch to Southwest. I’m in Dallas and there’s no big difference btw going to DFW vs DAL for me. But not sure I can get down with the free for all seating. Who do you prefer and why?

Anyone have experience working in the Columbus, OH area as a PM? I’m interviewing with a company out there. I’d have to relocate from the southwest. Thoughts on the area from a long term perspective? I’ve never relocated for a job, so I’m nervous doing that especially with a wife and kids. Any tips on relocation do’s and don’t’s?

Anyone know if I can standby onto an earlier southwest flight if I have someone else on my reservation who is flying our original flight? Im a-list preferred, she’s not, and she was booked full fare not companion pass. Have been unsuccessful googling this specific situation figured it’d be faster here
