Prices

Very disappointed in Southwest fares from New Orleans to Milwaukee this summer. I will have to fly Delta with them being $300 cheaper for 2 round trip tickets.

@Bassman, 

You're breaking our #SouthwestHeart! I'm sorry there wasn't a fare available that works for your budget on this trip. We are committed to being the industry's leading low-fare carrier, and we hope that we'll have an opportunity to serve you on future travels.

Sadly, the days of Southwest having consistently lower fares are long gone. Southwest's lowest fares can still be a good deal, but once those 6-8 seats are sold and the prices start increasing, often they're not competitive with other carriers, even adding in bag fees. These days, it pays to always check against other options.
