The flight changed from a 5:55 departure to a 6:05 departure so 10 minutes on the departure but it was going to arrive 25 minutes later at my final destination so I guess the layover was also longer.
I used the option she gave me to change to a flight that departs at 12:40 pm

I'm new to SW and have yet to fly a flight with them but with 110K points and CP for not really doing anything it will be tough to complain. I used ~13K SW points for 2 people R/T. Delta has nonstop flights but they want 65K points for 2 people
