In the past several years, I have avoided Southwest Airlines' flights if at all possible. Comparing their flight schedules and airfares for flights to and from Houston, I find their competition to have lower fares and much more comfortable flights and better rewards. Southwest Airlines advertises their free checked bags, but as a credit card holder, there are no baggage fees on their competitor's flights. Southwest Airlines no longer offers lower fares. Those days are long gone. Why would I purchase tickets at higher fares only to be shuttled on Southwest Airline's flights like cattle? Why would I pay higher fares to fly on Southwest Flights? I do not and will not. Meanwhile, I am earning flight rewards to fly all over the world on their competitior's frequent flyer programs!!! Southwest Airlines is heading under.
