Airline Summary

Dallas-based Southwest Airlines (IATA: WN; ICAO: SWA) is the world's largest low-cost carrier. Southwest operates non-stop flights to more than 100 destinations across 10 countries. Unlike many major airlines, Southwest does not use hubs, but rather a point-to-point system. About 15 airports with a significant amount of WN flights have been designated as focus cities. The airline's fleet is configured with just an Economy Class cabin. In contrast to many low-cost carriers, Southwest does not charge a fee for up to two checked bags; non-alcoholic drinks and pretzels or peanuts are also free on board. Early boarding access, automatic online check-in and alcoholic beverages are available for purchase.

They should rename Southwest Airline to Southlate Airline. De-layed flights and layovers are becoming to common. I will start looking at Delta and America Airline for future flights.

Paid extra foe boarding early. At least 30 healthy people boarded ahead of us. The flight sat on the ground after boarding for 75 minutes with no explanation. Terrible service.

New Orleans - Norfolk
Domestic
I flew SW for a work conference and my flight on the way home was delayed 3 hours so they put me on awful connecting flights and I had to travel for more than 19 hours and spend the night in an airport. I was originally supposed to fly New Orleans to Baltimore to Norfolk. I started at 1 pm on 6/5 and it is currently 6/6 @ 5:35 am and I still have 4 more hours until I get home. This was my flights that was their solution on getting home. I flew from New Orleans to Houston to Chicago to Baltimore and waiting on my flight to Norfolk. It has been stressful, anxiety ridden, and exhausting. I WILL NEVER FLY SW again. This is torture.
