I've only had one problem in 4 years non-reving on SWA..
The gate agent in LAS let a plane go out with 40 open seats because she didn't start clearing standbys until 10 min prior to departure (rev and nonrev).. the flight was underbooked by 50.. and it was a Sunday.. and that was the only LAS-LAX flight underbooked.. so because of her incompetence (really) I had to wait 8 hours to get a seat on the last LAX flight home due to her. What made me even more upset, was that I signed onto a computer in LAS and under standbys left at gate, she put a 0. Made my blood boil. But other than that, no problems. Everyone very respectful if the flight did not have a seat available. Oh, and word to the wise.. watch out if you're flying out of BUR, lots of weight restrictions.
