Southwest Airlines Community

I have a question for those who were passengers on Flight 2294. Please tell me the situation on the plane. Did the temperature drop? Wasn't it cold? Was the wind blowing on the plane? Did something get sucked out of the hole? thank you. ... View more

Flying is a service that I have come to love.  Like all services, things come with a price.  Southwest can't fly to every single town or area I need to fly to and at times I need to take another airline.  I would actually not have an issue with paying for baggage if it were at some reasonable price.  How somebody just made it immediately $25 and up was really a disservice to the customer.  I would have no issue, (even on SW) to pay a minimal fee.  (But hope I never do.)  So my short message here to SW Airlines.  If that day comes that you ever have to charge, I would gladly pay $5 per bag, but if it goes higher than that I might as well fly the other airlines, and know which seat I am getting.    ...

if i was big enough to be "redirected" to a different seat i would sue all of these airlines who apparently have these two-seat rules that no one knows about because btw, i HAVEN'T read about these situations before. and all of you "skinny" people who think that you are so tiny you aren't hogging the armrest... THINK AGAIN!! regardless of weight, people are just flat out clueless and incosiderate at the same time. ... View more

The new program is awful! It used to be one flight = one credit. Now my one flight only got me 390 points and I need 1200 for a credit....So I have to pay 3 times as much? The only reason I kept going to Southwest was so eventually I'd be rewarded, but I guess it's back to Priceline and Expedia to find the cheapest airline...one that doesn't break its promises! ...

Liquid creamer? Does this mean it will be non-dairy? Real milk or cream would really please coffee geeks like me. And I fly every week on SWA on an early flight. Help!!!! ... View more

Thanks to everyone for commenting on this issue. The topic spurred a lively discussion. No new issues have been raised for the past day or so, and the comments have devolved into personal issues between commenters, so this is a good time to close the discussion. The Blog Team ... View more

Since I have never used an airline that imposed a miniumum stay requirement, what happens if someone books a plan that does NOT have a miniumum required stay length. Another reason to fly Southwest, since each trip is handled on a one-way basis, NO Miniumum stay requirement needed or charged. ... View more

I would like an update on this report. I booked a flight with my family, which includes a 18 mo old. I'm never a fan of flying but now that I have a child I need to make sure safety is a priority. If possible please contact me with an update before July 8, 2010 ... View more

I would really like to see Southwest fly out of RFD ( Rockford, IL) to Las Vegas and Phoenix. People come from afar to use this airport because of free parking and convenience. Is this a possibility? ... View more
