Have already missed the first hurdle. flight to San Jose cancelled.
I was happy to get the email alert just as I was shutting down the computer. But they said I couldn't change my flight on the web and that I should call Southwest to change the flight. The first thing the auto-responder tells me is that I make changes to my itinerary on-line much faster. I wait. Another voice asks if rather than waiting would I like Southwest to call me back in 2-5 minutes? Sure. I punch in the numbers for the call back.
In 2-5 minutes, the auto-responder calls me back. I then wait online another 2-5 minutes before I talk to the operator. Computers are making my life more convenient.
