Your efforts to recognize our military and veterans is a wonderful gesture of respect and appreciation. Thank you for that. I would, however, like to see a policy of allowing active duty military the privilege of using a rapid reward voucher anytime. There should be no blackouts for active duty military, and when all the alloted rapid reward seats are booked, then a military member should be able to utilize a rapid reward voucher for any available seat . My son, who served 2 tours in Iraq, was not allowed to use a rapid reward voucher in returning to NC from leave just prior to deploying a 3rd time because all the seats designated for rapid reward vouchers were booked. His cost to fly from Austin,TX to Raliegh/Durham, NC was over $400. Is that really taking care of our military? Really! If Southwest Airlines wants to show the soldiers, sailors, and marines that they are appreciated then, show them by helping them out when they need it.

Great, a flight into SC will be so appreciated. How about in Savannah, GA? Lots of people need a closer flight to Parris Island, SC. to see their Marines graduatefrom boot camp, not to mention visitors to Hilton Head. A Savannah flight would be perfect!!
