Southwest is now more unpopular than Kanye West!!

Southwestern Airlines received a total of 7.2 Billion dollars in pandemic aid.

COMPANIES LIKE SOUTHWEST AND IT'S DIRECTORS, CEO, SHAREHOLDERS HAVE TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR ALL THE PAIN AND SUFFERING IMPOSE ON THEIR USER'S, THEY ABUSE THEIR POWER, THEY SHOULD GO TO JAIL AND ALSO HELD INDIVIDUALLY FINANCIALLY ACCOUNTABLE.

Why are people surprised? When businesses are deregulated, they only have one thing in mind: making a profit with the least number of people possible. They’re not interested in service. They’re not interested in fairness. In the case of Southwest, they got their tit in a ringer because they went way too far. Perhaps the CEO should step down. What do you think?

It's really the people's fault. They should know that the weather is bad and flights will be canceled.

Southwest should be required to reimburse the full amount of the ticket, a free ride home and $3000 per person, husband and wife child. This is unacceptable after the taxpayers have bailed them out they did not make the proper corrections and handing out bonuses rather than investing, they come accompanied to being bailed out, it is time for Southwest close their doors, and we made an example out of it so the department of transportation could move forward and people can travel in a more organized and safe manner. These air flight fights are brought on by their miss handling of customers which creates aggravation, and when they sit in there and serve cocktails, it only leads to a stronger angrier moment. There should be no alcohol sold at the airports you were going up into the air and there’s no need for alcohol to be served.

You get what you pay for. Southwest is a deal....until it isn't.

Reasons why I only travel with carryon

[mattdelany]

Polar cyclones, bomb vortex, global warming, climate change, worst blizzard in the history of the world. The weather is to blame.

keep traveling for xmas like the regular sheeps

[brendacorrea]

Actually if they cancel your and not reimburse you you guy's are within your rights to take them to court because what they are doing by keeping your money is illegal and by law it's their obligation to reimburse you. They have no right.

[mrjersez]

So can someone tell me why flights are canceled? Is it because the airlines are not making enough money so they cancel the flights?

"Thank you for choosing South West Airlines" 😆

BREAKING: Supreme Court orders Title 42 border restriction to be kept in effect.👏👏👏

Lol, this comment section is filled to the brim with entitled children acting like they just had their entire lives destroyed or ended.

You all just missed a flight.

Don't be so dramatic
