Southwest Airlines: all the news and deals on flights and Rapid Rewards

Southwest Airlines, founded in 1967, is one of the leading airlines in the United States and one of the largest air carriers in the world. Its history reflects innovation in the aviation industry and a commitment to offering high quality services at affordable prices.

The fleet consists entirely of aircraft B737 e B737 MAX, which ensure uniformity and operational efficiency. This standardization enables the company to keep operating costs low and offer competitive fares to passengers.

Southwest is known for its business model "low-cost, high-value". It offers affordable fares and essential services without hidden costs and is committed to ensuring a pleasant and uncomplicated travel experience for all passengers.

Southwest Airlines primarily operates domestic routes in the United States, connecting numerous cities across the country. The main hubs at Dallas (DFW), Houston (IAH), Chicago (ORD) e Denver (DEN) serve as key operational centers for its operations, providing effective connectivity and an extensive network of links.

The company is not part of any alliance, but offers a loyalty program called Rapid Rewards. This program offers passengers exclusive benefits and the opportunity to accumulate points for free travel awards.
