My buddy is a pilot for them, he said the ramp workers all walked off the job on Thursday night throwing the entire airline into a tail spin. I am sure there are other factors as well. I just got home today on Delta after being left stranded in Phoenix since Sunday. I will think twice before flying Southwest again.
Every large corporation, and thousands of small NFIB members, like me, took the PPP protections.
Until you've met a payroll yourself, and know the results firsthand of having your doors shut by a dysfunctional government enriching itself through big Pharma, I think singling out Southwest shows there might be more of an agenda to you than simple "open the books". You've got a pile of homework to do if you're looking for real robber barons and evil doers, as Southwest would not be one of them. Start with Fauci and the ivory tower at CDC.
The USPS loses money every year and we the people continue to bail them out . SouthWest will become the first airline that is destroyed by our government.
I think you should do a little research before you make ignorant comments like this. My father was a Commercial Pilot/Instructor for a Major Airline for 36 years. In those 36 years he flew and taught other Captains to fly to airports in over 6 continents. After his required age 60 retirement, he trained hundreds of Junior Pilots in Flight Simulators till he ended up being diagnosed with Cancer. Guess what, he was not a military pilot, and did not have a 4 year degree. Actually a lot of his co-workers were as well. A 4 year degree is simply a piece of paper! Before you talk about "diversity" hiring you want to consider most airlines are not going to risk an aircraft accident and law suit, just to hire a minority. I can also tell you as someone with a 4 year degree in Aviation Management and Flight Dispatchers License, I could never do the work my father did, even with a formal degree.
The weather was extremely frightful this year. Yes Southwest is down. Something tells me they will take this experience, and figure out what to do better next year. During the pandemic Congress couldn't wait to hand out money to companies and many airlines were the beneficiaries. Southwest will lower prices a bit to get some passengers back into their planes. But some will never return. They will fly Spirit or Frontier.
Why in the hell would that matter in the slightest? I'm sure it's a tiny fraction of Southwest Airlines' upper management let alone C-suite. What does Adam's income have to do with anything?

It's almost as if the government funneling billions of taxpayer dollars to its cronies doesn't result in a superior product! (See also: US education spending)
Boo hoo, I made reservations during the busiest time of the year and the worst storm in a decade hit. Boo hoo. Now my self entitled self will blame everyone else. Boo hoo
The utter selfish narcissism of this article and the whiny bitches complaining. Booo hoo. You are entitled morons.
Southwest serves the ENTIRE country, more than anyone. Not by hub but sends crews all over to create the amazing offerings they have. But all those short hope depend on other flights and mobile crews.
When planes don’t get to multiple destinations for multiple days it’s ignorant to blame the routing system when the weather was the issue. This didn’t happen outside this storm. This isn’t normal but this clown blames the system?
Typical victimhood from beta men snd Karens. Anyone with a brain and ability to read a weather forecast could have known not to go. Xmas blizzard. Oh let’s fly anyway. Reap what you sow.
Meanwhile, Butt-plug breaks wind!
This is all part of the total destruction of America and the world by the ruling elite. You ain't seen nothing yet.
Southwest is the new American Airlines. Don't fly either if you have any sense.
If you book on either, it will likely go wrong, and you'll have no one to blame but yourself.

The Feds need to force the bonuses of every upper manager be returned until WE get our 7.2 billion back.
Vote those who voted in favor of subsidies out of office

Quit taking federal money America and get off you dead ass and go back to work and that's spelled WORK and not WOKE !!
wgaf?
At LEAST Southwest still requires a college degree and won’t hire less qualified PILOTS for the “diversity” god like United and Delta.

Amen to that.
you misspelled your first name. why would you do that and does your father know?

I wonder how much ADAM ANDRZEJEWSKI makes per year? I can't find any of that information on their website. Let's open the books on OpenTheBooks.

Good one !
It’s called the uniparty both feckless one more cowardly than the other.

American education, bottom of the list of industrialized nations. What a dismal record
It would be interesting to see who Southwest donates to and how much $$ ?

You're an idiot. Which part of the fact that OTHER AIRLINES were able to operate normally did you miss?
Read for comprehension. Seriouslyy do you sit on the board of SWA? BOO HOO YOOHOO.
Accurately said! Spot on ...entire country was in one of the worst winter storms in history!
