EXCELLENT new system. First let me address families with children. Most people dislike change but there is nothing that states you can't sit with your family or your children may not have the front seat. This arangement only states that you will have to apply effort to obtain a A boarding pass with a number that would allow you to be some of the first to board the plane. The price of the flights and still freedom of choice is great. Others have addressed challenges that people don't want to sit next to children. Anyone flying Southwest knows for years Southwest has welcome children so if you aren't child friendly continue to move to the next part of the plane as you currently do when children board first. When you go to the next airline and you have to decide on the seat or you are given a seat, pay more for your ticket and the childs ticket, as usual Southwest will welcome you back with open arms and you TOO can still pick your seat just apply effort. THANK YOU SOUTHWEST
