Southwest Airlines is ending its no-expiration flight credit policy starting May 28, 2025. Flight credits from bookings after this date will expire in 6 to 12 months, depending on the fare type. Additionally, basic economy fares won’t allow transferable credits, while other fare types will. This change, alongside the end of free checked bags, has upset many loyal customers, with some considering alternatives for future travel.
