If you’ve lost your Southwest confirmation number, don’t worry—you have several options to find your itinerary. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Check Your Email
- Search for emails from Southwest Airlines (
@southwest.com or @wnco.com).
- Look for keywords like: “Southwest itinerary,” “Flight confirmation,” “Your trip is confirmed,” or “eTicket Receipt.”
- The confirmation number (also called a Record Locator) is a 6-character, letters-only code (e.g., ABCDEF).
2. Check Your Southwest Rapid Rewards Account
- Log in to your Southwest Rapid Rewards account online or via the app.
- Go to “My Trips” or “Upcoming Travel.”
- If you booked while logged in or added the trip to your account, it will be listed there without needing the confirmation number.
3. Use the “Look Up Your Trip” Feature
- On Southwest’s website or app, there’s a “Look Up Your Trip” option.
- You can retrieve it using:
- The passenger’s first and last name.
- The departure date.
- The departure city (and sometimes arrival city).
- This will show you the trip and its confirmation number.
4. Check Your Payment Method
- Look at the charge on your credit/debit card statement.
- Sometimes the confirmation number is listed in the transaction description (e.g., `SW AIR ABCDEF
