Just out of curiosity, when could someone expect to upgrade if they've been with Southwest since the early 2000s. Can an individual who does not make it through up grade return to the right seat?

I believe they have an "up or out policy," but I'm not positive.

Early 2000 hires already in the left seat. '04 hires currently upgrading.

No up or out policy, you can choose to remain an F.O. indefinitely. A failed upgrade will be allowed to return to the right seat provided they can pass an F.O. PC.

Do your homework on probability of selection vs cost of type and QOL in Oakland. Not bad idea to review best case upgrade times. A good company but no longer the best job in the industry for new hires. YMMV.

Got mine today too. I was getting nervous that this journey ended before it began.
