I’ve been lucky to have caught a flight back to SF after cancellations and can wait at home while figuring out how to get to my original destination.

What I don’t understand is how come SW couldn’t enlist help to get customers rebooked on other airlines - their phone lines were slammed (I waited 3 hours) just to get a refund since their app wouldn’t allow me to choose to rebook/cancel.

If I was as customer focused as they say they are - I would’ve contacted AMEX global travel and gotten their entire network of booking agents to backfill and rebook customers on other flights.

Southwest doesn’t have interline agreements with other airlines nor, AFAIK, the integration into reservation systems that allow rebooking onto another airline.
