First Time Log-In Instructions If You Had a Profile in the Old System:

The upgraded system allows you to do a search without logging in.  Log-in is only necessary if you wish to complete a booking or use the enhanced search features designed specifically to access web and promotional fares on Southwest Airlines.

Please do the following to log-in for the first time.

•  Log-in is now accomplished by using your regular e-mail address.  It is no longer necessary to input a special user-name.  The upgraded system will only recognize your e-mail address. It will not accept your User-name applicable to the old system.
   
• To enter for the first time, click on Register in the upper right corner of the screen and input the requested information.  In addition to granting first time access, the system will send a password to the e-mail address entered to use with your second entry.  At that time, you may change the password to one of your choice or continue to use the one generated by the system.

• The upgraded system has been programmed to automatically connect to the current information from your traveler profile resident in the old system with the submission of your first booking request.  Do not be concerned if your profile information is not visible after initial log-in if you have not yet completed an actual booking. The connection will occur with the submission of your first booking request, not initial log-in or a search.
