Our original flight from Fort Myers to Columbus OH was cancelled one week prior to departure. We selected another flight. When we boarded, the first three rows and the last three rows were blocked off. When we questioned why, we were told because of social distancing. Then we were told that it was a fairly full flight so all middle seats were filled yet these first three and last three rows - on both sides - were empty. After take-off, we realized that these rows were for the stewardesses! There were 4 of them and each one had 3 rows to themselves. I'm all for protecting the employees, but what about the paying customers??? This was totally ridiculous that 36 seats were occupied by 4 SW employees while the rest of us were stuffed together. The letter that was sent out by the SW president assured customers that their would be room to spread out during this crisis to make flying as safe as possible - obviously that was a bait and switch tactic. Shame on Southwest.
