I got tired of checking into my flight exactly 24 hours before it departs, so I built a bot to do it for me. Enjoy!

Sure it is great, but I wouldn't risk using a third party with these details

Careful. Southwest is litigious about this.

Great! I'll try it the next time I'm flying SW. Out of curiosity, is this open source? What are you using to achieve this? Puppeteer?
