PSA Reminder: Check Existing Southwest Airlines Reservations; I Rebooked & Saved $60

Posted on by . 23 Replies

Good evening everyone.  The inspiration for this post came from this Hopper alert for $130 roundtrip flights from San Francisco (SFO) to Orange Country (SNA).  Before I go on, do you like The Flight Deal, Fare Deal Alert, Secret Flying, etc.?  If so, you should check out ExitFares which aggregates all the airfare deal websites and sends you a daily email whenever they find deals for your specific airports.

I fly SFO-SNA several times a year and I usually book Southwest Airlines flights since they tend to be much cheaper than United Airlines.  But with the below airfare deal, I wanted to double check all my existing SFO-SNA reservations and see if I could save a few bucks.

You Cannot Convert Chase British Airways Credit Card to Chase Freedom Unlimited

Posted on by . 17 Replies

Good morning everyone.  A few days ago, my $95 annual fee posted on my Chase British Airways Credit Card and I had to make a few decisions.  Would I keep the credit card open and pay the annual fee or close the credit card and avoid paying the annual fee?  Could I convert the credit card to a different Chase credit card?  Could I transfer the credit line to a different Chase credit card?  So many questions, but I ultimately decided to call Chase and ask if they could convert the Chase British Airways Credit Card into a Chase Freedom Unlimited Credit Card.

PSA: Southwest Airlines Schedule Changes, No Alert to Passengers

Posted on by . 12 Replies

Good morning everyone.  Like clockwork, Southwest Airlines sends out emails every Tuesday morning with details of their latest fare sale.  And every Tuesday morning, I check all my upcoming previously booked Southwest Airlines flights to see if any of the flight prices have gone down.  If they have, I follow the advice in this post: PSA: Check Existing Southwest Airlines Flights for Price Drops, then Rebook.  Depending on the flight, you might save $5-$10 and sometimes you might save $40-$50, it just depends, but the only way to know for sure is to check all your upcoming previously booked Southwest AIrlines flights.

During my usual pass, I noticed that one of my upcoming Southwest Airlines flights was not showing up online.  I booked a late night flight from SFO to SNA for Fourth of July weekend, but when I looked on the Southwest Airlines website, I could not find this flight (time or flight number) anywhere.
