Southwest has always been one of the more restrictive carriers with regard to bicycles likely because of their budget airline nature. Their policy stated at their website is quite confusing ...
folding bikes
conventional bikes

Folding bike in hard case ... 62"/50# limit - free as checked bag
Conventional bike in cardboard box ... 80"/100# limit - $75
80" L+W+H is pretty small for even a bike shop box.
