International Bookings Live on Southwest.com! CP Allowed!
 

You can book International from southwest.com!

It will not let me log in so I cannot determine if the CP works yet! I checked BWI-MBJ which has NS routes on a 737-700! Also NS to AUA. Looks like options out of ATL as well.

When you go to the pay screen, there is a new area for Passport information.

EDIT: Companion Pass works for Int'l travel!

Also no option to book those with points.

Can't see SJD yet! Checked SNA, LAX, BUR, SAN, and PHX.

I want cabo!

Points & CP now work for international bookings on WN.

When you click on the "Where We Fly" link on the left side of the main web page, you get a list of all cities flown by both WN and FL. You can de-select FL; the new list of WN-only cities now has AUA, MBJ, and NAS (but no other int'l cities).

Enter city pairs and it brings you to booking engine.

My speculation: Ability to use the Companion Pass on international flights may lead to the demise or devaluation of the Companion Pass after 2015. If you were planning to earn a Companion Pass in early 2015, you might want to accelerate that plan and do it now instead.

I just tried BOS-AUA and BOS-CUN for February, May, and July. All of these redirected me to AirTran to continue booking... Not sure what everyone else is seeing?

Either A: It's not 100% live or B: No connections allowed. I cannot find HOU-MBJ even though I can come up with valid connections for HOU-ATL-MBJ.

Just tried BWI-MBJ, redirected to AirTran for Feb and May, but can CONFIRM on WN for July trip, only 8400 pts WGA, plus a $49 tax/fuel surcharge?

Please, don't start to confuse people with talk of fuel surcharges. That's not a WN thing (not yet, anyway).

I had no idea Jamaica charged that much to visitors. Geeez. With US fees, over $100!

Not worth it to my family.

Didn't mean to the throw the dreaded "fuel surcharge" language out there, I just wasn't sure what the fee was haha. Glad to see a full booking detail, thanks.

It appears you can only book international travel starting July 1 and only on WN flights correct?

Southwest.com down now?
