It appears so. If you pick Southwest flights to fly, Google Flights takes you to southwest.com to complete the purchase.
But for the first time in a very long time, one can now compare Southwest's prices with those of other airlines in one place at one time..

Thanks for the tip @dfwskier !
I took a first glance and I'll need to review this more in detail but now having a third-party means to price-check my SW flights is a real plus! Looks like it currently captures my area's current local as-low-as $59 sale too!
Being able to sort the results by departure time and setting your bag requirements in the filters is a real plus.
Hopefully, its posted pricing doesn't pop this infamous message:
That would mean having a "Low Fare Calendar" but with realtime pricing.

I'll have to take a look more in detail but this is a great tool at first glance!

So this is curious... Some of the flights I've been looking at on Google Flights don't match up with the SW website. In this example, I've put one-way from SEA to MCO on 8/12. I've set both sites to sort by departure time, and the only filter I applied to Google is "Southwest only". Google is only showing 6 flights that day when SW shows 19, and the only flight on Google that matches any of the flights on SW is the one from 5:30am-7:10pm. I've stared at these monitors for 15 minutes trying to figure out where I made a mistake on the search entries and I can't find anything. Is there a simple user error that I'm missing, or is there a problem with the data?
