This happened to me. The time changed slightly, and I ended up cancelling and rebooking at a lower rate. It’s so annoying when they won’t let you modify at the cheaper rate, even if the time changed. I hate being locked into it.

My SDF to MCO flight decreased again this Sunday morning by 2548 point (From $161 to $128). Online it only showed 1 flight left at that price. DS14 and I are booked together. DH booked separately. I changed DH flight online and got the points back. Online still showed 1 flight left at that lower price. I called called Southwest to ask for a decrease in points and did not mention the 1 flight left showing online. The Southwest agent refunded the points for both DS and I. That phone call got me back 5096 points! Only took 8 minutes. So a total of 7644 points back this morning.
Keep checking those flights…obsessively. When I first booked this flight the day it was released in March it was 14,113 points. Today it’s down to 8731 points. In dollars that $207 down to $128. I’m 81 days from the flight.

Hi fellow SDFer! That’s almost a whole other flight you got back in points! The lowest I got for our June trip was 9000-something. Prior to COVID, I had flights for I think about 4900 so I’m still salty about not getting to take that trip.

I got a notice from SW that may return flight plans have changed. For once they are for a positive!!
I am leaving at 6pm (as scheduled). However, I’m no longer going to Houston and waiting a few hours before departing to go home / landing at 11:30pm… Now I get to fly to ATL with a short wait and land at 8:30pm!!
I was, literally, debating changing flights this weekend so I wouldn’t be home so late!!

I’ve been observing the prices for my January dates and the prices keep going up! The roundtrip flight started somewhere in the $340 range. Today the price is $414.
Someone tell me that they will drop! I’m about 160 days out, so they have to go down – right?! I know some of you all have some spreadsheets with all your data. 
It seems like flights at the 90-day mark right now are super low compared to flights further out.

When in January? If around the holiday, maybe not
Otherwise I would say they absolutely will drop and 160 days is just too far out for that to happen yet. I think they’re dropping the novermberish decemberish fares right now

January 4th - 6th.
$414 for Southwest nonstop (BNA to MCO) just seems really high. I’m talking myself out of panic purchasing…
