Southwest website gift card policy
Gift card came relatively quickly and was easy to use.<br /><br />Be aware, Southwest.com only allows you to use 3 total forms of payment per transaction. Which means if you are intending to pay entirely with gift cards, and three gift cards don't add up to the total balance of your purchase, you are only allowed to use 2 gift cards plus a 1 credit card (3 total forms) to cover the entirety of the purchase.<br /><br /> If you try to checkout and enter three gift cards that do not cover the entirety of the purchase the system automatically removes one of the cards to give you the ability to enter a form that covers the remaining balance as the final 3rd form of payment. Given that you are only able to buy a maximum of $200 card denominations on this website, the maximum ticket price you can buy via these gift cards is $600.<br /><br />Long story short, if you intend to buy these gift cards on Amazon, buy the largest denominations you can to make your life easier, and plan on paying some out of pocket if you can't cover the ticket price with $600 ($200/card x 3 cards).<br /><br />Also, there is no way (on the website or on the phone with Southwest customer service) to combine the balance of any gift cards.
