Changes and Cancellations

Sometimes we need to change our flight schedule, and we are sorry if your travel plans have been impacted. You have a few options available.

Option #1: Continue with your travel plans

  • If Southwest® contacts you with a new itinerary, your new reservation is confirmed You must call Getaways by Southwest™ so that we can update the non-air components of your booking to reflect the change.

Option #2: Change your flight

  • If your new itinerary doesn't work, you can contact Getaways by Southwest™ to change your flight date and/or time by up to 14 days from your original travel date at no additional cost.

Option #3: Cancel your Getaways by Southwest™ vacation package and choose vacation travel credit

  • If you decide not to travel as a result of a significant schedule change and cancel your package, you can receive a vacation travel credit (VTC) toward a future Getaways by Southwest™ vacation package rather than a refund. When issued, VTCs will be divided as equally as possible among all Passengers included on the reservation when the reservation was initially booked (including lap children). VTCs have a specified expiration date. All travel must be completed by the expiration date. If your flight is significantly changed by Southwest® and you choose a VTC when canceling your reservation, your VTC will be valid for five years from the date of the cancellation.
  • You must cancel your reservation at least 10 minutes before the first flight’s original scheduled departure. Reservations that are not flown and not canceled at least 10 minutes prior to the first flight’s original scheduled departure are subject to our no-show policy.
