Anyone ever lost their checked in baggage on a domestic flight? My MIL never got her bag back on a direct flight from Chicago to Denver.

Been over 30 days now and just got a note asking for receipts. Any chance I will get anything at all?

Flying Southwest with wife and infant child tomorrow. As most of you know there are no seat assignments. I’m going to board first and hold the seat next to me so that my wife can board with our baby at the very end of boarding to minimize their time on the plane. What are the chances other passengers will make a fuss that I’m holding a good seat upfront during boarding?

How does one get to DCA Terminal A (Southwest airlines) via public transport? I know the yellow/blue goes to DCA but it drops off at the opposite side of the airport.
That walk over is easy enough to manage if you have a small carry on and budget the time to walk, but not so manageable if you have larger luggage.

So after 5 years I will be losing my Southwest Companion pass this January. I originally earned it 5 years ago via the sign up bonus for the southwest cards (earned it with travel since then). Can I cancel my southwest card and just re sign up again?

Don’t see anything in the fine print (there’s something about not claiming the bonus within 24 months) - but wanted to see if any of you have tried this?

Really don’t want to lose this perk.

I have been searching for a travel card for months. I am a young guy who is looking to take advantage of credit and earn points at the same time.
