More than 38 years ago, Rollin King and Herb Kelleher got together and decided to start a different kind of airline. They began with one simple notion: If you get your passengers to their destinations when they want to get there, on time, at the lowest possible fares, and make darn sure they have a good time doing it, people will fly your airline. And you know what? They were right. Southwest Airlines is dedicated to ensuring the highest quality of customer service is delivered with a sense of warmth, friendliness, individual pride, and Company Spirit.
