Yes. I just thought that since I was buying round trip tickets they
would extend the date by five days. As long as I can transfer the
funds and let anyone else use them by April 30, it will be okay. Are
you going to Florida before April 30?

Dear Cousin (heretofore known as DC) got panicky so we ordered our SW
tickets together online the other night.<<<<<<<<

Patty,
You have to learn this phrase........."We'll meet you there". <g>

No. And I have several hundred $$ that needs to be used by July. I assumed
(erroneously, I guess) that all I had to do was purchase tickets by that
date. It looks like you need to complete travel by then.

Well that's what I thought too. And I figured at the very least they
would give me an extension by a few days but not this time. It
aggravates me because it's my money and it's not like I'm asking for a
refund per se. I want to spend the money with Southwest so they are
going to get the money regardless. I'd rather they not mug me for
it! Hopefully, I can find someone who can use the funds and then
reimburse me. The only advice I can give you is that you buy tickets,
use your SW funds, and then cancel the trip to get another voucher!

That is exactly it, Steve.
I have been able to get an extension in the past. (In July of 05 I was
able to get a 3 month extension.) Wonder why PP had trouble? Perhaps SW
has tightened up.
