Ok Anonymous FA if you work for Southwest maybe it's time you take the buy out. Because if you honestly can't recommend your airline theirs something wrong ....we call it job security. And honestly use spell check. And Michelle..I totally understand allergies, If I come in contact with cat hair I to have to have medication and possibly an epi-pen which I carry with me. But because I have allergies doesn't allow me to dictate the lives of others. I simply have to be prepared, Southwest will do everything possible to keep me and the cat I'm allergic to separated in the aircraft cabin. It's not all about me, and its not all about you. Again people THIS IS NOT A NEW CONCEPT. Every other carrier offers this service.

"Pet Free Flights"...REALLY give me a break!!!! Personal Responsibility.....let me repeat Personal Responsibility....I don't think the majority of people know what that means. For those of you who don't look it up. And YES Rebecca Southwest has always allowed service animals on their aircraft.....we call it Federal Law. And lets be clear....ALL of the other major carriers have for quite sometime allowed pets in their cabins. So come on people for those of us who are allergic...and yes I am one of them take responsibility for yourself and travel with your medication if in fact you are that allergic to pets. So for those of you who leave Southwest Airlines for this new policy...say hello to baggage charges on other carriers, change fees, premium seat fees, assigned seat fees, and god knows what other fees you will pay. And YES when your board that flight on American Airlines or Delta or who ever you fly, say hello to Fido next to you, because YES they all allow pets in their cabins as well.

Ok for Stephanie, David, Rebecca, Preston , and all the Anonymous, I believe I have the same rights as you do. Do I complain when your child throws up all over the floor and the rest of the fight stinks to high heaven. The pets will be required to stay in their pet carrier, and the crate will have to be leak proof ( if you read all the regulations you will know this) they will also seat passengers that have allergies as far way from the pet as possible. And I'm not sure how the pet hair is going to get all over other passengers when the pet must remain in the crate, and parasite infestation give me a break!!! Come on people there will be some rules and regulations "we" (me being a pet owner) will have to follow. Lets not forget American, Delta, Continental, United, US Airways and many others all allow pets in their cabin. So if you think avoiding Southwest will get you away from the Pets think again!!!! I knew the minute Southwest announced this new policy the people that HATE change will be screaming like a crazy person. Tell ya what.....if you keep your child under control and I mean keep them from kicking my seat, screaming, crying, throwing up, whining. I will keep my little westie in her crate under my seat. Deal?

Ok…this is totally out of hand. I’ve seen customers comments and employees comments like…Low Class, Trashy, Porno Add, Terrified Children, “We are better than this” For our employees out there if your going to make negative comments don’t you think we should keep those to ourselves? Do you not understand we are in for a long fight to stay profitable? We need every customer, every dollar we can get. I am honestly sitting here shaking my head did some of you forget about our profit sharing checks we get?? This plane will have this decal on it for 60 days then its gone!!! This was designed to get the most bang for our buck..and I think its working. And as for the comment about someone being terrified that their children will see it…ahh have they ever been to the beach, walked through a book store and seen the magazines on display, walked through the mall and passed by Victoria Secret? Really!!!! Come on think about it. Is it really that bad?
