Southwest Airlines Reservations: Latest News Updates. Currently, same-day standby benefit has no charges to A-List and A-List Preferred Members. However, this is going to be changed from 1 January 2021; the ‘free same-day standby’ will change to ‘same-day standby free of airline charges.’ That means members of A-List or A-List Preferred who modify or change their itinerary using the benefit of ‘same-day standby’ will have to pay the additional fees and government taxes that may apply. Please note- · To use this benefit, contact a customer service agent of the airline at the airport on the day of travel. · This service is not available at the kiosks. · This benefit is available for those A-List and A-List Preferred Members who are traveling before the original scheduled departure, between the same destinations, on the original date of the journey, if the seat is available. · If the flights do not match the requirement, A-List and A-List Preferred Members will get the priority on the waiting list.
