This is just pure insanity.  Enough with the comfort animals.  Many of us have allergies and there is NO consideration for this.  I have a friend who for some reason is petrified of animals.  I don't pretend to understand why but this is getting out of control.  Put the animals in the cargo hold where they belong.  I am in the terminal right now and you have two dogs barking up a storm.  REALLY.  The plane has turned into a friggin zoo.  We are here to travel and fly, not have someone's animals be part of the flying experience.  Am I the only one who feels this way or is everyone afraid to say what we all know is true. ...

Going to make a comment to applaud the idea of Family boarding be first if they want to sit in the back 10 rows, otherwise board with the number they have.  ... 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.    ...

I traveled last week home from Las Vegas to Fort Lauderdale FLIGHT 5923 (last flight of night) on 1/1/2018 (landed 1/2/2018) and was sitting in row 3 at window (right side of plane as entering - left side as sitting).  I left my Nintendo Switch game in its case with all the games I own!  I have filed a lost and found report but was hoping that maybe someone on the flight found it for me?  No one called out to us and I would hate to think someone could just keep something so valuable without even trying to find the owner... It is a black game in a black case and is very important to me.  ANY help is greatly appreciated!  Southwest will only look for 30 days and I am a week in... thank you! ... View more

Wanted to thank Southwest AND all its passengers on the times my twins and I flew and you were there to do the assisting, holding, lifting and stuffing while I poked, pressed, squeezed and ordered a Mimosa just as fast as I could .... I find if I need help ever .... JUST ASK !! P.S. Remember - some of the very BEST comedy comes from flying. For instance, my cousin is a flight attendant and once on an international flight she had to motion to a lady who did not speak english to place her baby's carrier in the overhead compartment. As she walked by an hour or so later, she didn't see the baby and asked the customer about it - the poor woman misunderstood my cousin and had placed the carrier overhead WITH the baby strapped in it. Gotta Luv It! ... View more

Blizzard warnings were issued as a service to parts of Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin as snow socked the states in tandem with hot air gusts topping 45 miles (72 kilometers) per hour. The blizzard -- 10 days sooner than the birth of winter -- took its greatest sounding in Minnesota, where as much as two feet (61 centimeters) of snow had fallen in some locations, according to the National Weather Advantage (NWS). The country's largest city Minneapolis was junior to a blanket of bloodless 17 inches (43 cm) broad, the worst snowfall to charge the big apple in more than 19 years and the fifth-biggest on record. As an incriminate in of the simoom's oppressiveness, Minneapolis-St. Paul Universal Airport -- a traversing hub with adroitness in contending with foul seedy -- was shut down for the purpose the oldest notwithstanding in years. ...
