Soutwest Business Class

You know I like to deal in all things Southwest, right? Well, I think I have figured out a glitch in their new “business class” airfares. You’ve heard of their “business class” - you get to board first and get double frequent flyer credits and a free drink coupon. It’s like a trick to make you think you’re getting something. But its only twenty bucks more than the normal fares, so the trick totally works on me…

But I have figured out how to game.the.system. Oh yeah, baby – the fountain of free drink coupons. See, when you check in online from your computer – you print out your free drink coupon. But for some reason, if you check in again at the airport to reprint your boarding pass, (because…say…you’re an accountant who can’t keep track of ANYTING) then it prints out your drink coupon AGAIN. That’s right…and you can just keep reprinting that boarding pass and collecting drink coupons like it’s a slot machine payout. Oh yeah baby. If your flight has two legs to it…two-fer on the drink coupons. I am sure I am showing up on some report for checking into my flight from Nashville to Manchester 37 times, but that hasn’t stopped them from bringing me my FREE miller lites. I think we know what everyone is getting in their Christmas stockings!!!!
