1. Southwest will never take your cash
See a toll you like? Book it, regardless of whether you don't know you can make the excursion—you can generally change or drop later, for no charge. Nowadays, we're accustomed to discarding tickets we don't utilize in light of the fact that the charges to drop or change are at times higher than the starting worth, and that is in the event that they even give you the alternative to mess with the booking. Not at Southwest Airlines Reservations, where each penny goes toward future travel, and when you're in my profession, there's consistently a future flight… or three.
2. Handled sacks fly free
All things considered, the initial two, at any rate. Besides whatever you welcome ready. In case you're similar to me, this implies you could move the nation over without paying a penny past airfare.
3. You can get the best seats for just a couple of bucks extra
A few days ago, on an aircraft I won't notice, they needed about $50 on head of my toll, just to sit close to the front of the plane. For an a whole lot lower charge, Southwest's EarlyBird Check-In lets you get at the great seats before every other person. You'll get checked in naturally, which puts you at the top of the line (Southwest doesn't appoint seats), and offers you an incredible chance at a leave line or bulkhead seat, or possibly something alluring front and center.
4. Seat tasks are really exaggerated
In any event, when I haven't tried to book EarlyBird, which I infrequently do on flights under two hours, I've never been stuck in a center seat, not in almost 10 years—the stunt is making sure to registration (you can do it in a flash, on the application), 24 hours before your flight takes off. This will commonly put you far enough in front of the pack that you'll have an extraordinary choice of seats to browse, when you jump on the plane. An extraordinary aspect concerning choosing the spot is that you get the opportunity to choose where, however who you sit close to—perhaps I need calm, and there's a huge gathering of Vegas-bound revelers toward one side of the plane, or everybody in the leave column appears as though they've had a terrible day. No compelling reason to get included—I can settle on decisions, I can head off to some place else, possibly to a column where somebody welcomes me to plunk down. Envision that!
5. A genuine business voyager can really complete work
Almost every time I've flown lately, the planes have had solid, dependable remote web access, for short of what you'll spend on a portion of the bigger aircrafts. Try not to want to work? Watch four scenes of House Hunters on HGTV for nothing, on your telephone. Take yourself out.
6. They've barely ever constructed me late, and they never lose my gear
I love when industry associates get together and gloat about how they never process their packs. Why trouble dragging my cases around, when I realize that Southwest will consistently (fingers crossed) get them to where I'm going? They generally cause their association in one piece, to thus do I. Truly, my sacks have never missed an association. Late flights, very rarely, however never for something besides climate.
7. It resembles a cool club that anybody can have a place with
Southwest makes a special effort to ensure that their charges don't turn up on different sites. This implies infrequent explorers who aren't completely mindful of their alternatives, which is a ton of voyagers, really, don't consider booking Southwest. I wish they would, for the wellbeing of their own, yet I likewise wouldn't fret that practically each and every individual who flies Southwest, in my experience, is genuinely versed on how things work, and how to board. This implies it will in general happen a lot quicker than on different aircrafts, which implies we can get noticeable all around quicker, which keeps everyone's pulse low. I wouldn't venture to such an extreme as to portray flying Southwest as a zen experience, yet on certain days, it comes terribly close.

8. They're a totally chill, reasonable approach to get to Hawaii
So perhaps it took always, however Southwest presently serves the Aloha State, frequently with exceptionally appealing passages, giving every other person a run for their cash, which has carried the islands closer to the terrain for some individuals. Without a doubt, it appeared to come to the detriment of their Mexico program—bring back Mexico City, for the wellbeing of goodness—yet life's about tradeoffs.
9. The period of them serving a predetermined number of objections is finished
I'm not being clever, however on the off chance that Southwest doesn't fly somewhere in the United States, or possibly near it, I presumably don't have to go there. Obviously, it assists with being adaptable. I wouldn't fret visits, not Southwest visits (see #6). We have a relationship based on trust, I realize it'll work out, and some of the time it's ideal to stop in Nashville for a chicken sandwich, mid-travel day.
10. Best homegrown group ever
Everybody has awful days, and life as an airline steward isn't simple, yet the manner in which Southwest's group appears to move with the punches, regularly with a comical inclination. You simply don't see that on other homegrown transporters, or if nothing else I once in a while do. It has an enormous effect to the flight understanding, and it's the main thing I miss when I'm on another aircraft.
