If you want the peace of mind for not having to worry about checking in at T-24 go for it. The earlier you purchase it the more advantage but that doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't get it if you want to.Does anyone use EBCI? I just bought flights for MCO to IND for the day after thanksgiving and I'm wondering if it would be worth it to get to not worry about checking in exactly 24 hours in advance while I'm at work. Just curious if it's worth it to get at this point.

My flights dropped big time also. I am flying down on the 5th and flying home on the 12th from Nashville. I booked on points, got back over 7,000 points on two tickets round trip!My 12/1 flight dropped from $360 to $210! Sunday after Thanksgiving so it was high. I had booked 4/19 yesterday with points, so I cancelled, got the points back and paid cash $164-$150 = $14! Plus I got 10,819 points back!
I have a decent credit from a price drop. I’d like to use it on a flight I already purchased with points. Is it possible to rebook the flight using part credit part points? I’m thinking probably not. The credit would still leave me paying a little over $100 for the one-way flight, so I’d rather not pay cash. Thanks!

We always get EBCI. My husband still doesn't get it...the night before we leave, he's always asking what time he needs to be on the computer. I, the ever understanding wife (NOT)..have to stop from snapping at him that the 24 hour thing doesn't apply!!!We get it for every flight. It's one less thing to worry about not having to check in right at the 24 hour mark.
Yes, still check in 24 hours before. If you do not have an A boarding position then you will board during family boarding which is between the A and B groups. Seats are not assigned, you choose from any open seats when you board. So you can choose 3 on one side and 1 on the other if that is an option - which it should be.First time taking SW, travelling with kids under 6, do they still allow family boarding? Should I still check in 24hrs before? does this mean I get a digital boarding pass for all passengers in our group?
How would seat be assigned? we are a party of 4, three on 1 side and the 4th on the isle on the other side? how will I be able to choose this arrangement?
Nope, never.Does anyone use EBCI? I just bought flights for MCO to IND for the day after thanksgiving and I'm wondering if it would be worth it to get to not worry about checking in exactly 24 hours in advance while I'm at work. Just curious if it's worth it to get at this point.
The poster was just asking about not wanting to worry about checking in while at work I think we can all understand that happens and may make us feel more comfortable not worrying about it.Nope, never.
First, with the app now, it's extremely easy and convenient to check-in online at 24 hours. We've never gotten below mid-Bs
Second, who cares if I can't sit next to DH for a couple of hours. We live together at home and are together on vacation. We can manage apart. We don't chat on the plane anyway. Heck, when we fly with reserved seats, if there's 3 in the row, we don't sit together anyway. He likes window, I like aisle.
Even if DGD is with us, we go with the no-cost option. She flies alone, so she too can sit away from us. Even before they moved away, I chanced it.
We've never not sat together, be it 2, 3 or 4 of us.

On another note....our return flight next month just dropped $7.00....I don't understand how/why fares literally fluctuate on a daily if not hourly basis. I did change the flight to add another $7.00 to a building credit toward the next flight in April but what a pain in the butt.
Only a year?? Wow, it sure feels like it's been longer.Southwest again removes MAX 8 aircraft from its flight schedule. This time, Southwest extends the grounding from 02/08/2020 - 03/6/2020. That will almost make it one year, since the MAX was first grounded on 03/13/2019.
