What is Southwest Airlines?
The Southwest Airlines Company was founded in 1967 and is headquartered in Dallas, Texas. It is a major US airline operating out of a hub at Dallas Love Field Airport. The company also operates secondary hubs at Chicago Midway International Airport and Nashville International Airport. Southwest has been known for its low fares and friendly customer service throughout its history, with many referring to it as “the people’s airline”. Although the company had some financial difficulties early on in its history, it has turned itself around since then thanks to successful marketing strategies that have allowed it to grow into one of the largest airlines in the United States.
