Re: PSA: Cheap Flights on Southwest

  • That's awesome.  And makes me even sadder that my city doesn't have a Southwest terminal at its airport.  Losers.

  • Holy flip.  This makes an actual honeymoon sound possible!
  • Southwest doesn't fly outta Atlanta. :(
  • I wish they flew to London:-/
  • I want to go somewhere just to go somewhere now, unfortunately all my free places to stay in fun cities has dried up, and all our extra $ is going into the house. Someone needs to book something so I can live vicariously through them!

  • Thank you sooo much for sending this, I had no idea and we need to book flights to Vegas for the Bach parties in Jan!
  • Mrs CPH, did you book on SW?  They will always credit what you spent back to you if you change your flights so you could save the $75 credit for a future trip.
  • Southwest flies to/from Chicago if anyone wants to come visit me.

  • kailie, how is SW any worse than any of the other airlines these days?  They've all eliminated virtually all perks, and the other ones now charge you for luggage.  At least with SW I can check in early, get a decent seat, and take my stuff with me for free.
  • kailie, you're cracked. If you talk to someone, they will always let you board with your spouse. You check in 24 hours ahead of time, and you get your pick of seats. They don't charge you for luggage. You're right, I'll spend $500 MORE on a flight just so I can have my bag of peanuts and not sit next to a fat person. Happy effing honeymoon.

  • Kailie (or however you spell it) if I can find tickets that cheap to get at least 300 miles away from my home when it comes time to leave after the wedding for a few days, then I will jump on that sooo fast.  It sure as heck beats driving four hours just to get a couple hundred miles away for a weekend.
  • Kallie is wack.  We fly Southwest all the time.

  • Waitaminute, I'd like to know which airline has banned large, unkept, smelly people please.I travel a good amount, and I've never had a bad experience with SWA. They assign you to a boarding group just like every other airline, but you pick your seat. They don't upcharge for the exit row, or front of the plane, or checking luggage. On more than one occasion I've seen a flight attendant get on the speaker and ask someone to volunteer to give up a seat so a couple or parent/child can sit together. Overall their service blows the big airlines out of the water.

  • Also they have the best record of on-time flights which is the most important factor to me next to price.

  • Kaille, clearly the best move to make in this situation was to write a backhanded apology where you let everyone know SWA is just fine for the public, and you must not understand because you are an elite frequent flyer (To quote p2: Biitch, please). Then to delete that post, and the one you originally made about how SWA is just for people who slum it.Bravo.
