Southwest Airlines Community

After 4 flights in 2 days which each had over 25  pre-boarders- I'm over it. And breaking news states that SW has increased the maximum charge for earlybird check-in and upgraded boarding ( up to $149!).  That will surely increase the number of pre-boarders.   Also- SW policy regarding saving of seats ( they don't officially have one)  has also been put out there on social media and now abused. Between the 2 policies- the abuse has gotten out of control.   I used to like no assigned seating  - but now I wish that Southwest had pre-assigned seating.  ... View more

You probably don’t know that, as of today, 56% of US population is injected. A lot of nurses got fired because they refused to be injected. Ask “why”?  ... View more

Yes, I'm talking about #2, an electric mobility scooter for disabled people who can't walk more than 50 feet. Specifically. the Solaz Transformer with a lithium-ion battery costing about $2000.   If you drive it to the gate, it gets handled much less than checking it at the ticket counter. You don't need a manual wheelchair pusher  You can drive it to connecting flights. You don't get stranded when the wheelchair and pusher don't arrive because they are severely understaffed. And you don't have to hunt the scooter down at your destination. ... View more

The videos of kicking children off of flights were all kids that just wouldn’t wear one in the moment, which is absolutely heartless and even against the WHO recommendations.  Again, you are dealing with a federal rule, and not just a Southwest policy. The feds require airlines to enforce the rule.   Your recourse is complain strenuously to your congresspeople and senators. ... View more

In case you missed it, there are vaccines that protect against that virus. And there is about a one in a million chance of contracting covid in an airplane. Why shouldn't a fully vaccinated heart failure patient be allowed the mask exemption in any case?   The policy is a bit bizarre, if there are 120 people on a 160 passenger plane, not wearing a mask is fine for one passenger. If there are 121 people on the plane, the mask exemption is a deadly menace to all onboard. ... View more
