Southwest Nonrev
Hello Southwest Friends,
I have a ZED ticket with Southwest; however, my question is when I listed for HOU-LAX sector on the 5:35AM flight. Some reason, that I could not able to made on that flight. Do I need to cancel my listing via MyIdTravel or Customer Representative can move me to a later flight on the same day?
Thank you

Looking at the time I’m think you already know the answer to your question, but for others, and assuming WN operates like AA, if bumped you’re automatically rolled over to the next flight.
BTW, it’s raining in L.A., which means everybody forgets how to drive.

Yes, you do get supposedly rolled over to the next flight, however, today's SWA is NOT even remotely what it used to be 20 yrs ago, a lot of the new agents just don't care so if a rollover is imminent I would go up to the gate agent and make sure my name was transferred!

Thanks for your reply! Last time I flew from DAL-HOU and could not make on that particular time. Agent told me to cancel my listing and make a new one. Just wondered :) Many Thanks !

One thing to remember is there is a difference if you are at the gate and did not make the flight or not at the airport. If at the gate, and get bumped, most likely you would get moved to the next flight. If not at the airport they would probably void your ticket.

A voided ticket for a no-show is really more of an issue for revenue tickets. ZEDs are fully refundable, even after the flight, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Spongebue, it wasn't for the refund. I am just not sure if you no-showed for your ticketed flight but showed up for the next flight you might have to reissue a ticket, or at least make the changes, on MyIDTravel. Not sure if gate agents can/will make the change at the gate.

Just additional to the question. Some of Southwest flight is stop and required changing plane. While other is just a stop without plane change. However, if my ticket is book to final destination via the flight is non-stop. In case, I could not get on the nonstop flight. Will can I get roll over to next flight with stopover (with and without plane change)?

More likely not because you deplane a the stop and you will be back on the standby list, in order to board you will need another boarding pass which suppose another coupon to give to the gate agent.
