Southwest newbie here - I am flying HOU- (con MCO)- PLS next month - should I pay the $50 per pax for the early bird check in or wait to see what the cost is for A1-15? I have seen some DP's saying that early bird is getting late A slots/early B slots for boarding. Is this true? I know there will be tons of kids on the MCO flight so not expecting a miracle here. Just trying to get a sense of the value of early bird compared to this other product.
TIA!
