I am blessed and lucky to be making it. We are going to try everything possible to be on a flight that we would not have this situation. I am just praying that if we were caught in this situation, that someone, out of the goodness of their heart would help us out. We will deal with what we get. Have a great day.

I have a question, did the person who provided the non rev tickets explain what the norms/rules are for non rev passengers for Southwest? Are there guidelines about things like asking paying passengers to switch seats with non revs? Not trying to give you a hard time, I just think it's kinder for you to know what the rules are (if any) before you fly. Some legacy airlines are pretty stringent about things like this, I don't know about Southwest.
