Wow a Blog, who would have thought? I cannot say enough about SWA, I would NOT be able to handle the crazy life I have without it!
I live in Sacramento and my husband lives in Arizona ( Yes I know what you are thinking, THE PERFECT MARRIAGE! ) We have done this "Commute" for 13 years on SWA. I am in the Wine Industry and am a Manager of 11 states.. ALL southwest airline states except Alaska and Hawaii. I also have to travel to Chicago and NY on occasion. I do not know what we would do without you guys. I travel on average about 12 flights a month... that's A LOT of time on SWA! I have a 16 year old son in one state and an 18 year old in another, thank goodness for Companion passes! We all meet in the middle at our Tahoe home once in a while. ( Flying into Reno of course on SWA )
We have our CC at SWA and really rack up the free tickets so we can go back and forth at our leisure. I never understand when people say that they cannot ever get a seat with free tickets.. I have NEVER had a problem. I love it when we have a "Lively" flight attendant, it always gets my day started, I hope you encourage them to do the fun speeches they do etc.. it makes for a much better start to a long day.
So all cannot be perfect ( But pretty close ) I had to take a flight out of Seattle and flew another airline.. ( Shhhhh ) well Southwest I have to say I was IMPRESSED! ( the Horror of it!) I flew in those fancy white reclining seats and got spoiled rotten with incredible food and drinks as I sat down, and the flight attendants were pretty hip I must say. But the BEST part? I HAD WIFI !!!!!!!! Do you realize how important that is to a busy executive like myself? I was able to get all of my emails caught up and research what I needed to do by the time I landed. It was the most enjoyable experience I have ever had on a plane!!!
When I returned home I found myself searching THEIR site for other places they fly.. all because of WIFI ! I had booked last minute and it was the same price in First Class as a last minute ticket on SWA. Soooo I really really prefer SWA but without WIFI i am starting to cheat on you! ( I feel so dirty! ) So PLEASE get WIFI as soon as you can on your flights. It will make all the difference in the world to a Business traveler like myself.
I have had people tell me that I should be featured in your magazine because I am a cheerleader of the airline and live on board. I have never seen a Wine Professional featured so when you are ready for a true Southwest Airlines traveler story. Look me up. Imagine the backdrop... Wine Country..... 🙂 Doesn't get better then that!
