Southwest Airlines launched the month of love in a big way across Atlanta, showing Customers our Employees’ Heart.  More than a thousand Employees and guests joined Gary and many of our Senior Leaders at the College Football Hall of Fame in downtown Atlanta on Friday night to get a preview of a new campaign that’s putting our Heart all over Atlanta.  This video recaps the LUV-filled event and features our brand new ads (airing only in the Atlanta market).
