About Southwest Airlines
Co.
In its 45th year of service, Dallas-based Southwest Airlines

carriers with exemplary Customer Service delivered by more than
47,000 Employees to more than 100 million Customers annually.
Southwest operates more than 3,600 flights a day, serving 95
destinations across the United States and six additional countries.
Southwest service to Belize City, Belize, begins Oct. 15, 2015, and
Liberia, Costa Rica, on Nov. 1, 2015, both routes are subject to
foreign government approval.
Based on the U.S. Department of Transportation’s most recent
data, Southwest Airlines is the nation's largest carrier in terms
of originating domestic passengers boarded. The Company operates
the largest fleet of Boeing aircraft in the world, the majority of
which are equipped with satellite-based WiFi providing gate-to-gate
connectivity while over the United States. That connectivity
enables Customers to use their personal devices to access streaming
music provided by Beats Music or to view video on-demand movies and
television shows, as well as nearly 20 channels of free, live TV
compliments of our valued Partners. *Southwest is the only
major U.S. airline to offer bags fly free® to everyone (first and
second checked pieces of luggage, size and weight limits apply,
some airlines may allow free checked bags on select routes or for
qualified circumstances), and there are no change fees, though fare
differences might apply. In 2014, the airline proudly unveiled a
bold new look: Heart. The new aircraft livery, airport experience,
and logo, showcase the dedication of Southwest Employees to connect
Customers with what’s important in their lives.
From its first flights on June 18, 1971, Southwest Airlines
launched an era of unprecedented affordability in air travel
described by the U.S. Department of Transportation as "The
Southwest Effect," a lowering of fares and increase in passenger
traffic whenever the carrier enters new markets. With 42
consecutive years of profitability, Southwest is one of the most
honored airlines in the world, known for a triple bottom line
approach that contributes to the carrier's performance and
productivity, the importance of its People and the communities they
serve, and an overall commitment to efficiency and the planet. The
