Checked in at T-24 yesterday for WN 453 ORF-BWI and got an error message initially. Tried again and got A54.
At the same time got B05 on my connecting flight, WN 382 BWI-BOS.
UPDATE:
GA announced ORF-BWI would have only 86 pax. Got aisle seat in empty row 10. Later a guy took the window but nobody sat in the middle.
Passed up several aisle seats in the front of the plane BWI-BOS because I wanted a window seat for sleeping. Got window in empty row 16 and no one claimed aisle for quite some time. Middle was finally occupied as well, as flight was completely full.
Amazing to me that overhead bin space never seemed to be an issue on any of my 4 WN flights this week.

Checked in T-24 for OAK-BUR on Thursday afternoon. Got B10. That was only 12 worse than my A-list preferred.
If that's par for the course I certainly won't be buying EBCI anymore. And less incentivized to finish the qualification for next year.

STL afternoon departure, I'm guessing there were just a couple connecting boarding passes issued before T-24...

First time flying SWA, believe it or not, tomorrow EWR to IND - thought about doing EBCI but decided to take my chances. Anyway at T-24 and about five seconds I got A50 so I am glad I didn't spring for the early check in.

should not be an issue. I've always been able to get an aisle even with a worse boarding position. Should be plenty of windows. Do have to worry about family boarding between the A and B groups to MCO

Last Night MDW - TPA B-20 for my companion.
Side note and it has happened a few times. I hit it right at T-24 the last couple flights and it will show not 24 hours for at least 5-10 seconds before it finally lets one go through. Are their clocks off or is it a glitch. It happened a couple times in the last month.
