Southwest is the largest low-cost airline in the world and one of the country's main carriers. Its headquarters are in Dallas, Texas, and it offers scheduled service to 121 U.S. cities as well as 10 other international locations.

Herb Kelleher and Rollin King founded the airline on March 15, 1967, under the name Air Southwest Co. It changed its name to Southwest Airlines Co. in 1971 when it started operating as an intrastate airline, entirely within the state of Texas, initially flying between Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. In 1979, it launched regional interstate service, and during the next decades, it expanded countrywide. Southwest presently provides airport service to several Central American locations in addition to 42 states. In contrast to other US airlines, Southwest operates on a rolling hub and point-to-point network and offers free checked baggage. In its fleet, only Boeing 737 aircraft are used. During the busiest travel season, the airline employs close to 66,100 people and conducts roughly 4,000 departures daily.

The airline is renowned for its low necessary admissions, which are offered as seat-only tickets at incredibly affordable prices. Passengers that require more time for their travel might extend their trip to accommodate their needs. Southwest is unique since it is one of the major airlines that uses open seating. Open seating, which operates on the "the early bird gets the worm" tenet, allows passengers to choose their seat as they board the aircraft rather than being assigned one at check-in.

Classes of Service

Southwest Airlines offers three main seating classes: "Wanna Get Away," "Anytime," and "Business Select," with the goal of making it simpler for customers to select the type of flight travel they desire.

Wanna Get Away

Includes any non-refundable reservations that are not business-select or full-price refundable ones, as well as any travel bundles that are not included in those categories.

Anytime

It is completely refundable through Southwest. You may modify your ticket at any moment without incurring any fees thanks to this reservation. There is typically little to no difference in the price of modifications because standby travel between the same city pairs and the precise date of the trip is allowed and these costs are fixed for several days.

Business Select

A1-A15 guaranteed boarding, Travel By lane access, a complimentary premium drink, 12 Fast Incentives for every dollar spent, a totally refundable price, and standby are just a few of the advantages it offers.
