Questions

Is Southwest Airlines down right now?

According to reports on this page, Southwest Airlines looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

The last mass outage ran from Oct 19, 2026 1:20 AM to Oct 19, 2026 1:15 AM (5 minutes).

Why can't I check in online for my Southwest flight?

Online check-in opens 24 hours before departure. If the page won't load or errors out, first confirm your confirmation number and try the app instead of the website. If both fail during a known disruption, airport kiosks remain an option, and staff can check you in manually.

What should I do if my payment fails during booking?

Check that your card details and billing address match your bank's records, then retry once. If the charge appears on your statement without a confirmation email, contact Southwest before booking again so you aren't billed twice. Widespread purchase errors usually point to a service problem on the airline's side.
