Is this specifically stated somewhere in the SW rules? I find it hard to believe...as stated before I've taken many "credits" and EBCI has followed me and I've always gotten an A boarding pass. We do purchase EBCI with the original ticket purchase, usually a day or two after flights are released. If we truly got moved in the virtual EBCI que with each credit taken, we should have been bumped to B boarding....and so far, we haven't been.Re: comments about Early Bird. Your Early Bird follows your reservation. However when you *modify* your reservation, ie taking advantage of a lower fare, your Early Bird date resets to the day you modify the original reservation. This happens because even though you don't see it happen, the software algorithm used to perform this function technically cancels your original reservation and replaces it with the new, lower fare (or different departure time) reservation and while your Early Bird upgrade follows the reservation, your place in the virtual queue will now be determined by your new reservation date. Also, many people don't know Early Bird purchases in the 'Anytime' fare category - a more expensive ticket - will be placed ahead of Wanna Get Away fares regardless of purchase date.
