Southwest Airlines today extended its flight schedule into early next year, allowing Customers to begin booking their travel for the 2023 holiday season.

Southwest Airlines flights have all been grounded over a technical issue currently affecting the carrier’s systems, which has already caused around 800 delays.

Southwest Airlines announced today it is extending its flight schedule through Nov. 4, 2023, and making the flight schedule available for booking at Southwest.com.

Southwest Airlines will soon make an unpleasant change to the pricing model of its onboard internet. The airline will be raising Wi-Fi fees for passengers with connecting flights.

Southwest has added a new capability to target accounts with more promotions. It is also testing features such as Split Reservation and more.

The new dates open up the opportunity to book flights through the summer and early fall.

Some customers are already receiving their refunds, but much less than they expected. One passenger got just $9, another only $46 flight credit for a $302 flight.

The agency “has sent every complaint directly to Southwest” and has asked the airline to provide substantive responses to each within 60 days.
