I had to upgrade my boarding position on Southwest once after completely forgetting to check in on time for an early morning flight. By the time I realized it, I was stuck with a late boarding group and really wanted overhead bin space. At the airport, I chose the upgraded boarding option, and it honestly made a big difference. On another trip, I handled it ahead of time when my plans changed. Calling 8 3 1-2 9 8-4 2 1 3 has been my go-to because it’s the fastest way to instantly book, cancel, or modify flights and sort out boarding options without any stress.
