Rats, my nonstop Southwest flights on MCI-MSP became connections, looks like I will stay on DL for now. Hopefully they keep it for Labor Day weekend in September.
Also, my Labor Day flights did NOT change and are still nonstop but I have the ability to change the flight for free. Does this mean that these flights are safe and won't change again?

Right now, I have another odd instance. I was booked 9/2-9/8 from LAX-MSY on non-stop flights. Those non-stops are now gone as of today. They reassigned me to flights connecting through BNA. I want to change them online and can the outbound but the return now says the city pair has to be MSY-BNA (final destination BNA!) and not what I booked which is MSY-LAX. The system has really gone nuts. Also, just happened to look at all the WGA fares for the week before and after those dates and they are sold out on all dates for LAX-MSY which I highly doubt has occurred.

I changed my flights from the beginning of August to beginning of September, then I changed it again to beginning of October, then I changed it again to mid-October. All back to back changes that the system allowed right before I posted.
