  • Happy 100th birthday to Ms. Helen Rose! When Rudy, the MYR Station Manager, noticed a Passenger was joining the Centenarian club, he worked with Jill, one of our Flight Attendants, to make her flight extra special. They had the whole plane sing her happy birthday and downed her with a crown, name tag, and a special flyer certificate. When asked for any words of wisdom, she said simply, "Keep the faith!" Cheers to you, Ms. Helen Rose, we loved having you onboard and hope to celebrate you again in the near future. 💙 ❤️ 💛

  • As the Love Airline, we knew we had to do something extra sweet for Valentine's Day. That's why we partnered with Russell Stover Chocolates to surprise Customers at Kansas City International Airport with free chocolate! We didn't stop there - 3 lucky flights were gifted a large chocolate box to take to their valentine and one special flight even had a saxophonist serenading Customers at 35,000 feet! We hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day full of love and chocolates! 💙❤️💛

  • Meet newly engaged couple, Greg and Natasha! Greg has worked at Southwest for 8 years, and Natasha has been here for 5 years. Though working in different departments, their paths rarely crossed; until one serendipitous day, they sat next to each other on a flight from BWI to DAL. Greg asked for help with his crossword puzzle, and they hit it off immediately. Turns out, love IS in the air! 11 months of adventure later, after visiting family, Greg decided to pop the question at Dallas Love Field Airport with friends and family waiting and cheering them on. Of course, she said yes! Congrats, Greg and Natasha, we hope this Valentine's Day is extra full of love. 💙❤️💛 Video provided by Dallas Love Field

  • Our LAX Rampers are spreading joy one bag at a time! Thank you to our wonderful Rampers who spent time on their break to handwrite heartfelt notes of kindness to attach to Customers' luggage, bringing unexpected smiles to travelers' faces! We believe in always going to the extra mile to help make you smile. These small acts of love remind us that every journey is about more than just getting from point A to point B, it's about connecting you to what's most important in your life. 💙❤️💛

  • There's a reason they call us the Love Airline! At 35,000 feet, with the help of our Flight Attendants, Benjamin took the intercom and made a very special announcement: "Ladies & gentlemen, please give me your undivided attention. For those of you that do not know me, I’m Benjamin and my country of birth is Liberia. Today, there’s a VIP lady on this flight with us. To me, she’s the most beautiful, loving and kind-hearted woman in the world. Her name is Relindis and she’s originally from Cameroon. Relindis. You bring out the best in me; you support me, you see my talents, you encourage me, you respect me, you trust and love me. I believe with all my heart, soul, and mind that with you, I’m complete. I love and trust you! And I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?” Of course Relindis gave an enthusiastic "yes" and the whole plane celebrated! Congrats, Benjamin & Relindis - we are honored to be a part of such a special day and can't wait to watch your love story continue to grow. #SouthwestHeart #ValentinesDay #LoveStory #Proposal

  • Everyone knows about the Big Game that’s happening tomorrow, right? It’s Puppy Bowl! Puppies from Take Paws Rescue in New Orleans came to the airport to cheer on their friend, Shelby, who is competing in #PuppyBowl. They also surprised Customers in the gate area with some sweet treats and pre-flight snuggles. See who wins by tuning in to Puppy Bowl TOMORROW (Sunday) at 2P ET | 11A PT on Animal Planet. We know it’s a hard choice, but we have to ask, are you Team Ruff or Team Fluff??
