This New Years Eve delayes were NOT just southwest, why run AGAIN on Southwest ONLY?? ATC shut the state of Florida down, that was NOT southwest fault! The Vegas Airport was closed, NOT southwest fault. The fog across other cities, NOT Southwest fault. Yes, Southwest has BIG issues, and they rightfully should get called out WHEN THEY ACTUALLY MESS UP!
WHAT AN INCONVENIENCE I live, Born and raised in little rock I fly out of BILL and Hill's airport its a small airport and its actually easy to get last minute tickets to just about anywhere but having 2stops is VERY common on any airline our flights are longer, the planes sometimes older and smaller
I’m glad I stayed home.
Southwest system for its employees experiences overload when too many flights get canceled. Otherwise it has worked for 50 yrs.
Fly 100+ times with Southwest? Why? Southwest doesn't fly internationally (except for Mexico and the Caribbeans). All of those miles and perks should have been with a legacy carrier (United, Delta, American, etc) as they probably would have flown to Lisbon too.
It seems likely that Southwest leadership knew of the under-investment in IT – but for whatever reason decided to not invest. It is the foolish CEO that defers investment in foundational IT systems.
"We should quell our anger. The fire of anger can burn up all our merit and virtue. The first thing that cultivators should practice is patience. With great patience, we can turn anger into kindness. Anger is like ice; we have to melt it into water, for water can benefit many things". – the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua
Hope this can help.
Jason Callabretta is so fabulous…slay queen

Trump had an audience of 3 people at his new year's grift, oops…..I mean party and he's blaming it on Biden for destroying Southwest airlines. 👍
Hopefully people can have patience. Im sure theyre trying to do all they can
