Herb Kelleher has died. He was 87.
You can read the obits at the links to get a lot of details about his life. If you fly any, you'll know the differences between Southwest and its competitors (especially that they don't charge for checking two bags).
I have been on a few of their competitors. Some of their employees have all of the cheerfulness and politeness of convicts out on work-release. In contrast, on my many trips on SWA, I have only come across one employee (a gate agent at BWI) who seemed to be having a bad day. I now only fly their competition for transcontinental flights and for flight to places where either SWA doesn't go or they don't go there when I need to fly.
All of that can be traced back to Herb Kelleher. I hope they don't lose hi spirit.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
SWA rules!
ReplyDeleteIt used to be that if you needed a restriction, a climb, a descent, anything, the “Company Plane” could do it. You asked for a report, you got a report, those days are gone...ended in the late ‘90’s, but I still love SWA!
