Can you extend Southwest travel vouchers?

Vouchers generally aren't extendable. Travel Funds may be reissued, as a voucher, once expired for a fee of $100 per Travel Fund/passenger. You have 6 months after expiration in which to make the request, and the voucher will be valid for 6 months from the date of issue.
