When your fares are lower than the majors, I'll fly ya. No idea why people are so enchanted with SWA when fares out of MHT are ALWAYS higher than anyone else's. ALWAYS.

As I have read many of you are very excited about Southwest Airlines coming to Boston. I am a Southwest Employee that works in one of the many cities surrounding BOS and I am just as excited. For those of you that are inside 495 and are Logan fliers......get ready for something you have never experienced. We PRIDE ourselves in Customer Service! There is a reason that only roughly 1% of all applicants get highered and that is because SWA is very picky about personalitiy. If you are thinking about applying....well bring a warm heart and big smile! We will need some good Bostonian's to work with us! And for the above that had nice things to say....Thank you! We appreciate you also! I know I will continue to provived you, the New Englanders, what you deserve and that's GREAT Customer Service! Logan here we come...LOOK OUT!

Thank you so much for providing service to BOSTON! Just hope it is from Pittsburgh or Cleveland so we can access it! We fly SW to Seattle & F;proda to visit our kids, but don't use SW to visit kids in Boston because we had to fly to Portland to get there! Love flying SW! Now just remove the peanuts so our grandkids (allergic to peanuts) can fly w/us!

It will be so good to have an airline serve Boston whose employees realize the customer is the reason they have a job. Also,now I won't have to be gouged by Airtran or Delta when flying out of Baltimore to Boston.

I'm a United Airlines 1K and I really mainly fly to their hubs (Chicago, DC, Denver, Los Angeles) and occasionally Seattle (easy connection through SFO) but I'm looking forward to see how SWA does at Logan. I usually fly First class too so I'm not interested in downgrading but I'm sure some of my friends and family will be excited about this new service. Also looking forward to seeing where they'll put the gates and the counter. Possibly in the Terminal C arrivals level (former TermD) where AirTran used to be. I haven't seen any planes at the D gates in years. I've also noticed that SW fares are typically the same or even higher than UA and AA so I'm interested to see how they'll stack up. Might just have to give them a try sometime for kicks.
