“Every day is interesting and fun. I like that excitement of the job.”  —Ryan Shone, Ramp Agent

 

Since Ryan Shone joined the Southwest Airlines Family in December 2014, he has enjoyed the excitement of being a Ramp Agent every single day. Ryan is known for his work ethic and positive attitude, and he always has a smile on his face. Ryan’s Coworkers view him as the go-to guy when it comes to getting tasks done safely and correctly. While his work on the ground is important, Ryan’s connections with Buffalo Niagara International Airport go beyond just his job. With help from his supervisor, Ryan pulled off a surprise proposal at the airport to his fiancée, a Flight Attendant also in the Southwest Family. Ryan truly exemplifies what it means to have a Fun-LUVing Attitude and Warrior Spirit. —Melanie Tobiasz, Communication & Outreach
