Puhleese! Not a 'revenue generator'. Everything Southwest, and most other airlines, do are revenue generators to give their stockholders a fat paycheck. First extra fees for baggage, now charging for blankets and pillows (and the ones that aren't will soon), and the flights have gotten miserable. I'm a tiny person and I'm cramped in the seats. I'd rather have an overweight person next to me than half the rude, smelly, non-stop talking, drunk people I've had to put up with. Of course, I quit flying SW a long time ago because of their cheapskate policies and the fact that when I did fly it 4-6 times a year, I ALWAYS, ALWAYS had some problem with flights delayed, canceled, overbooked, lost luggage. Flying has become such a hassle that we have chosen to drive 10 hours with a toddler to avoid a flight. If airlines don't start making some changes, and fast, more of them will be going under.
