Growin', growin', growin',
Southwest keeps on growin',
Gary is a-crowin',
DENVERRRRRRRR.....

Yep, buckaroos, Southwest is adding flights again to Denver!  Effective June 13th, we're using two aircraft to add a second nonstop between Denver and Ft. Lauderdale, a second Denver-Ontario, and a second Denver-Boise (or, as they say in Idaho, Boi-SEE).  We're also adding Denver-Houston/Hobby Flight #4.  This will give us 133 weekday departures to 42 nonstop destinations from Denver International--which, by the way, turns 15 years old this year, and was recently named one of the 13 most beautiful airports in the world by Travel & Leisure magazine.  We certainly think it's a beautiful facility--just look at the way we keep adding flights there!

The new service, along with our other more than 3,100 daily nonstop flights, are available for sale now at southwest.com.  Happy trails!

Proud to be a SWA employee (flight attendant) and proud that we're doing so well in one of my former hometowns!

Bill, Did you just have a couple of planes sitting around? Wonder how you might be able to do that when the "schedule optimizer" had already run for the summer (along with the wash machine out in the garage). You didn't get a trim between haircuts, did you? (Or maybe, you take delivery on a new bird or two that day and it's awhile before you cycle 1 or 2 out.....)

Okay Southwest...I am pleased about Denver. But last year....wasn't there some talk about flying into Portland Maine? What happened? There is a tremendous market for the hot and humid Washingtonians and Baltmoreans who are just waiting for that short hop. Please think about this...okay?

JJG, when we published the Summer 2010 Schedule we held back a few airplanes pending decisions on issues that would determine whether we could do various scenarios. This two-aircraft rotation won! Bill

Thrilled by another nonstop to Ft. Lauderdale, and the Houston flight will come in handy! Now I just need a special on flights out of Denver.... I want to fly a lot this year Southwest, make it happen! Already booked CA during the 2 day special, but couldn't get in on MCO before the window closed.
