“Southwest is the best airline I've ever flown with!”
Southwest makes traveling as easy as they possibly can. It seems as though the airline actually puts the customer's needs before their own. What a concept!
Need to change flights? No horrendous charge! Just change your plans and apply the credit from the original purchase. Do it within a year or you lose it. Fair enough.
Check in online 24 hours in advance so you can have the best choice of seating possible. This is not a big deal to me if I am flying alone, or on a short flight. On longer flights, or if I really want to sit with a particular someone, getting on the plane first is more important to me.
The people who work at Southwest seem cheerful and pleasant. They seem eager to please and I like that.
