Southwest Airlines Military Discount July 2022

Love southwest. Flights have always been on time for me. All the people I have dealt with are friendly and helpful. After an exceptionally stressful flight due to another carrier leaving us stranded, a pilot saw me frustrated and asked to help, pointed me in the direction I needed to go. Wasn't his job, but he helped anyways. Besides reliable and friendly, add on the free checked bags and the prices are even more reasonable. Lately if the costs are even close, I use southwest. I just trust them so much more than other carriers.

Good afternoon. I wanted to take a minute to say thank you and share with you why you have converted me from another airline for life. My wife’s Grandmother was in her last days and hours of her life, the last week of march this year. My wife and I had planned on traveling to see her, and had a ticket purchased already for my wife and one of my daughters, but we needed it changed and needed to get me and my other daughter a flight. For my work, I travel quite frequently from Nashville to Dallas among other places on another airline. Because of my status I like them to continue to build points with them. I called them first to book myself and my daughter a flight to Phoenix. They were of no assistance, would not budge on the price for an emergency, and would still charge me a large amount to move my points. I hung up. My wife then called southwest. Not only did they get us booked last minute, they adjusted the pricing for an emergency, and helped us the whole way thru it moving our points around etc... . Even when we got to the airport, they bumped us to an even earlier flight to get us there as quickly as possible. What a blessing it was to fly with you. If we would have went with the other airline, or had we not been bumped up to an earlier flight, we would not have made it in time to see her grandmother before she passed. We arrived within less than 2 hours of her passing. What you do for people every day may seem routine, but for us, it was a life changing moment. Having my wife be there before her grandmother passed means more to me than I can possibly express to you. As a result, I have decided to switch to southwest for all of my work and personal trips going forward even though I do not have status with you. Sometimes I fly out of Knoxville where you do not service, but other than that, I will forever use you now. Thank you for making such a hard time for my family, just a little easier. God Bless you.

I've been meaning to review Southwest for years. Just a great experience every time, and the one time I was significantly delayed due to weather, I received a $100 gift card in the mail a few weeks later. They're pretty liberal with the free drink coupons too.

My wife has dementia and got to the airport a day early. They were just going to leave her out on the sidewalk before she could call me.I was more than willing to get whoever on the phone and pay for the price of a new ticket.But no they made me transfer money to her card so she could pay for it personally plus I might add she's in a wheelchair.This was at the Las Vegas airport.Walk away and leave a lady in a wheelchair on a curb before she can call me is bull.Southwest you can kiss my grits I'll put her on a bicycle before she flies your airlines again.I am giving three stars because finally after getting their money somebody did step up and help her and get her on a plane home.The guy working the curb on 10/31/21around 6:00 at night is a complete jerk in Las Vegas.

While they’re most certainly not perfect Southwest tends to be our airline of choice.

This was very easy to book

No hidden fees; kind, thoughtful, courteous attendants and employees! They help solve problems before they become catastrophes.

My 77 year old mom who has memory problems just flew from VA to Colorado the staff made sure my mom was well taken care of they even had the wheelchair waiting for my mom as we arrived. My mom had to get on to another plane in Chicago and again the staff treated her like a princess ( Mom said) they made sure my mom got on the right plane with no problems they made sure she got on the right shuttle to get to my sister's house with all her stuff only lost the walker. I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who help my mom. Thank you southwest Airlines for going above and beyond for my mother. God bless you all Darleea Gilbert

My husband and I got married on his birthday of 5/24/2017. We flew to vegas on his birthday that year and have been using Southwest Airlines since then. It's smaller, easy to find your way through terminals, cleaner and staff so far has always been extremely pleasant. Love our DFW location.

Although many are upset because of these trying times, I have to say while we flew Southwest Airlines from Mdw to Punta Cana flight 2692 and had a great flight. We had our grandchild with us which was his first flight and the crew could not have done enough. While in the Dominican we started hearing so many rumors that the borders were being shut down and we were basically being abandoned. Well Southwest answered their phones confirmed our flight back to the USA and yes we called numerous times as United abandoned everyone at our resort and many people were left scrambling for any airline to please take them back. our flight was the second to last flight back to the USA, and we had a first row seat and I cannot tell you how many people arriving on the plane Flight 517 kept on thanking Southwest for taking them home. Our family witnessed this personally and Southwest had flown many planes empty to the Dominican to bring our people home. The best part was the crew of this flight showed all of us so much attention, and treated everyone great. One passenger had her birthday party sung to her by the whole flight and the crew gave her a bit of a funny gift and one of the crew also sang, to the passengers. By far the best flight I have ever been on. I thank the pilots for their hard work and the crew who put so many people at ease for the great time and flight. I have and will anytime always fly with Southwest due to their great service. If I could I would give them more than 5 stars.
