Seat Selection Options

Southwest Airlines seat selection now offers more seating choices for a comfortable journey. While open seating remains, passengers can upgrade for extra legroom or preferred seats. Every fare still includes two free checked bags, no change fees, and flight credits that never expire.

Seat Preferences and Assignments

Passengers can set seat preferences anytime between flight booking and check-in using the seat map in the United app. If the chosen seat is available, it will be assigned. Families with up to two children under 12 can sit next to an adult for free. Basic Economy travelers can purchase a seat assignment before check-in.

Southwest's open seating policy states passengers cannot pre-select seats during booking. Instead, seats are chosen on a first-come, first-served basis when boarding. Your boarding position (A, B, or C) determines when you can board and select a seat.

• Extra Legroom Seat
  Enjoy up to five extra inches of legroom for a more spacious experience. These seats are located at the front of the cabin and near exit rows for added convenience.
• Preferred Seat
  Standard legroom seats are positioned closer to the front, behind Extra Legroom seats, and near exit rows. Perfect for quicker boarding and deplaning.
• Standard Seat
  Located at the back of the cabin, these seats offer standard legroom and comfort at the lowest fare.

Change your Southwest flight

Modify Flight Date

Southwest flight change allows you to modify your flight easily without change fees. You can adjust your travel date or time or even switch to a different flight on the same day.

Southwest date changes can be processed online or through the Southwest mobile app. The airline does not charge change fees, but you may need to pay any difference in fare.

Important Guidelines:

• Change your flight up to 10 minutes before departure to avoid cancellation.
• If your new flight is more expensive, you must pay the difference in fare.
• If your new flight costs less, Southwest will refund the difference in the original payment or flight credit.

Same-Day Flight Changes & Standby

Southwest allows passengers to change to an earlier or later flight on the same day of travel. You can either confirm a seat on an available flight or join the standby list. There are no change fees, but you may need to pay the difference in fare depending on availability.

• For a confirmed change on the same day, you can immediately book a new flight if seats are open. The origin and destination must remain the same.
• If no seats are available, you can list yourself for standby. This allows you to take an open seat if one becomes available before departure.
