    Check out the bartender situation as best you can. Are the “redwood boys” still manning the place while closed and if so what hours.
    Did you fall to temptation and raise the armrests for a nap across the row? :snore:

    Would they care if I put my feet up on the exit door?

    Following along. Best of luck to you! I picked up cash for my trip today. That's when planning is done and it starts to feel imminent.

    This guy saved a seat for his wife. The FA shrugged her shoulders when I looked at her,

    I wanted the exit row seat and paid for EB. But his wife got on later and got the seat.

    Don’t be THAT guy!! :confused:

    It IS funny the way they shrug though. No assigned seats on swa just board and take any seat.
    I once got on and a couple had split up but the guy had a purse and hat in the seats on exit row he wanted to save for his party. :cry:
    She shrugged then too; but also did a little eye roll. I got a free(pre COVID) drink out of it. :beer:
    (He’ll be in the casino later saving seats at the 10’play bonus machine) (but then maybe people like that stay on the strip and rent scooters)......:blink: :blink: :biker:

    I would never condone someone saving a bunch of seats on Southwest for a party, but I have both been the beneficiary as well as the "victim" of someone saving ONE seat for a spouse and I just let it roll.

    @Ty I am following along and repeat my thanks for you getting The Cal to separate the two 10-play 8/5 bonus poker at $0.25 denomination machines.
