Coming back from Orlando yesterday I goofed and didn’t online checkin 24 hours in advance like I usually do so my daughter (13) with autism is able to sit with either my husband and I or both. The line up position I got when I remembered to checkin was guaranteed only center seats would be left and we would all have to sit apart. There is no way my daughter could do a 2 hour flight sitting alone. I explained the situation to the Southwest ticket agent at check in and she said no problem and allowed my daughter and I to preboard. I’ve never asked for accommodations before for my daughter, I’ve just always checked in early to secure our line position. The agents at Southwest were very helpful for us. So if you need help don’t be scared to ask.
