We’re making it internet official. KAYAK now displays flights and fares from Southwest Airlines.

Southwest is the second largest domestic airline in the US, flying more than 136 billion revenue passenger miles during the past 12 months. They’re known for low fares, great service and the most nonstop flights of any airline globally. You won’t find their fares on traditional travel websites.

Starting today, KAYAK users will see Southwest fares integrated within our normal flight results. They can easily compare fare attributes like ticket refunds, travel credit transferability, same-day changes, checked bags, flexible seating and more. Ready to book? KAYAK will transfer users directly to Southwest’s own website or mobile experience to complete a transaction.

“This is a great development for travelers,” said Steve Hafner, CEO. “We first started showing Southwest in 2022 to KAYAK for Business customers. We’re thrilled to expand that relationship to the millions of leisure travelers who use KAYAK.”

Southwest operates out of 117 airports across 11 countries.

What does this mean for travelers?

Southwest brings fantastic new fares throughout the continental US, Hawaii, Latin America and Caribbean. So you can further compare your options and pick what works best. Never taken the airline before? Travelers love the airline’s flexible policies, deep discounts, always-free two checked bags per customer (weight and size limitations apply), no change or cancellation fees and more. Not to mention, an affordable airline that still gives free snacks? Always a perk.
