Since other airlines use the -800 and -900 series, I hope that Southwest invests in either one or both. I think that there is sufficient justification for this size of plane, in my casual observance flying out of Phoenix.
However, if you do, please invest in an additional restroom on-board. It's one thing to wait for a restroom when you're going PHX-STL, but if you decide to go PHX-HNL, it could be come a messy plane.
Yes, I understand that putting a restroom takes out seats, but I believe all will be happier if there was a mid-cabin or additional restroom in the rear of the plane.
I really enjoy flying Southwest and I believe that Southwest will grow new markets and should gain more capacity to fly either longer distances (PHX-HNL) or be able to fly more people places like PHX-BOS non-stop.
Do something like that, and you'll have more passengers that will be happy...and not crossing their legs mid-way between Phoenix and Honolulu.
