The entire experience from boarding to landing was amazing! The crew were very friendly. Will definitely be back.

The crew was very kind and made going to Hawaii relaxing and fun to look forward to! Thank you Southwest for a pleasant flight!

Southwest was greaat! The most expensive but the least upsetting for those we were flying to see.

Boarding was easy. The seats are small and fairly uncomfortable

The Southwest experience has definitely taken a dive from its early days. You can no longer deferentiate from other airlines. Air travel is too expensive. Southwest is no longer budget friendly. They have lost me as a loyal customer.

The wifi on the plane is great. The only issue that I have is that I prefer an aisle seat and on my trips this week, I was either in the middle or window. If we can work to secure aisle seating, I will be thrilled. Nice trip.

They sent a notice that they were boarding an hour early. We had to leave the club and run to the gate. They said sorry, that came from corporate and was a mistake. They did not have enough seating because the flight before it had not taken off on time. They moved our gate and delayed it for an hour.

Southwest is going downhill. I'm more apt to fly other airlines now. And I'd appreciate it if your gate agents didn't invent non-existent laws. If Southwest is having issues getting flight crews, you need to go out of your way to accommodate passengers instead of saying it's weather related and not in your hands. We can all see the other carriers are getting their planes off the ground and to/from the cities/regions you claim are weather-impacted.

Would have liked screens on the back of each seat.

Wish Southwest had a power source to plug iPhone's into; wish Southwest also served up better snacks. Otherwise, the service & seat choices, if you check in on time for your flight, are excellent. I'm also happy to say that this particular flight had no delays.
