Oh wow. SWA assholes. It's obvious from your treatment of the lady sitting next to Kevin that Southwest was either putting on a show or just out for more revenue. I mean, come on, Kevin already HAD two seats, you assholes KNEW the seat next to him was vacant yet you forced the lady to sit next to that empty seat THEN tried to force her to buy another seat or eject her from the plane. Southwest is just a bunch of revenue hungry assholes.

I don't applaud Southwest at all. It's obvious SWA screwed up and tried to gloss over it. In fact, I imagine the "guy at the plane door" who had the "revenue" conversation with Kevin Smith is the person who in fact made the command decision about booting him off the plane. And then had the nerve to blame it on the pilot.
So now we know that:
1) Southwest's "person of size" policy is arbitrary
2) Southwest employees lie about Command Pilot orders
So why would I ever fly your airline ever again? I stopped flying US Airways when one of their baggage apes stole out of my locked, checked baggage; I certainly don't trust an airline that lies about Flight Crew and/or Command Pilot orders.
Captain Leysath, IF there really is such a Captain, should have the job(s) of the crew who threw HIM under the plane with Mr. Smith.
I own stock in SWA; several thousand shares. This fiasco is making me consider dumping it all. I'm not as large as Kevin Smith but even I am uncomfortable in the majority of airline seats I use.
