  • Wish I could fly Southwest Air, but I can't I live in the North East. DAMN !!!

    lol

  • the only things airlines charge for in the air is full sized snacks, alcohol, box lunches, and sleep kits on domestic flights. internationally the only thing they charge for is alcohol. Southwest doesn't fly internationally, and they have no bag agreements with other airlines, so that means if you fly southwest first and your final destination is outside of where they fly, then your bags will have to be reclaimed and rechecked with the next airline. Southwest, America's most overrated airline!

  • @lojosol Southwest.....About the only major carrier that has consistantly posted profits, even in these difficult times and has never filed chapter 11 despite people like you that never have anything good to say about them.

  • @diapermanful you obviously know nothing, because you would realize that they are making their profits by charging, on average, a higher fare than most other airlines. sure, other airlines like US Airways do charge for bag fees, and for changing your ticket, but as far as bag fees go, there are people who travel a lot and never check a bag, so they recognize this by separating the bag fee out of the ticket price. À la carte is what saves the customer money, not including everything in the fare!

  • @lojosol Yeah...you are right. I know nothing. AA charges a la carte and has lost billions of dollars over the past 10 years and just filed for chapter 11. Southwest doesn't charge a la carte and has only had one money losing year in their history and has never filed for chapter 11. Thanks for enlightening me.

  • @diapermanful hmmmmm.... how did American Airlines come from my mention of US Airways??? try reading what i said again. and also US Airways has made a profit for at least the last 3 years since charging for bag fees separate from their ticket price. before having the ticket cost separate, the fares were higher and fewer people could/would buy tickets. now the cost is separate and more people can buy tickets because they are cheaper. not sure about AA, but at least for US Airways, it works!

  • @lojosol Just an example of how a la carte isn't neccesarily the cure all. The main reasons why US has become profitable has more to do with lowering their overall operating expenses through multiple chapter 11 filings through the years combined with the HP merger that helped bring their costs in line with LCC's like WN. US's profits aren't exclusive of the bag fees, they are just a small part of the picture......But than again, what do I know...

  • What does Southwest says at the end? Can't understand it :(

  • @brendastar666 You're now free to move about the Country

  • How much to let my sister punch you out?

  • @ChristopherSaindon Asking Flight Attendants a question is $3.00 + $1.00 call button fee. You better have exact change!

  • @CuervoBlack06 LOL! My Sister always carries the change!!

  • feel free to touch that call button for a minimum fee of $1 

    now that's free

  • Lol

  • Southwest adds fees to the ticket price! Most of their fares are higher than Delta's including bag fees!

  • Comment removed

  • @hawk1tdh - Delta has the third highest ticket prices and fees in the U.S. market behind AA and United.

  • Leering at the flight attendant's ass: $5 per leer.

  • isn't sw the airline that falls apart midair?

  • @psadpoiafsdf Its the one thats never had a crash in over 15 million flights.

  • JETBLUE IS THE BEST!! SOUTHWEST IS A CLOSE 2ND (my opinion)

    Jet blue also has the most legroom for a low cost carrier(fact). Check cnn airline ratings.. southwest and jetblue always on top! US AIRWAYS at the bottom again!

  • this is nearly better than what you get when you fly with Ryanair!

  • The only strings attached to Southwest's fares are that they have DESTROYED the aviation industry in the entire WORLD. ALL.....I repeat ALL the legacy carriers around the world have either been in bankruptcy....liquidated....or near bankruptcy....and all because of the Southwest low cost carrier model cutting everyone's throats. It's a race to the bottom, led by Southwest Airlines. Fuck Southwest. Fuck everybody who supports Southwest. I hope you get exactly what you paid for, a cheap airplane.

  • @JetMechMA Why do you sound like you used to work for one of these legacy carriers?

  • ohhh i was like this is the exact opposite of southwest!!!!

  • serious?!?! how much cheaper the flight ticket is compare with the other flights? Everything all need money...

  • I flew Qantas from KJFK, to LAX, all the way to Sydney. I was also treated real nice.

  • is that the girl from raising hope

  • they laughed at this when it was made.... but thats how it is now lol.

  • snacks and drinks are free? my arse.

  • southwest sucks. fly jet blue and you can have a first class seat (they're all first class), actually choose where to sit instead of playing the "first come first served game", and you get a free movie with your very own screen. also the flight attendants on jet blue treat you like human beings, not like cattle. ^.^

  • Don't even ask what a handjob under the blanket costs...

  • these are some great prices, where do i sign

  • Thirty years ago I enjoyed flying. Great service, pretty hostesses, leg room and pleasan people. Now I completely loath flying. I hate it with a passion. Nothing but bus drivers flying a cattle car loaded with rude obnoxious idiots. Customer no service. Flying sucks!

  • @optvmike if you would like to experience flying like what it did 30 years ago, fly Asian airlines, like 5-star airlines such as Singapore, Asiana, Qatar, trust me those airlines are the best. But US Airlines just wants your money

  • @jezrelnyc2000 Flew Cathay Pacific once from Hong Kong to Rome...long flight,was in economy but was treated like a human being with a genuine smile,Delta staff are nice too but met the crew from hell 2 weeks ago on a flight from JFK to Dublin,it was like a training exercise for newbie flight attendants making sure you knew there was a recession on by not serving you or making eye contact on purpose until 2 hours of that shit,i stood up and waved her down like a taxi to get a drink of water.geez

  • @noelio67 You want cheap air fares.....what did you expect? BRING YOUR OWN WATER. You wanna fly across the country at 600 miles per hour and in comfort and safety... for $99 bucks ...and still expect to be treated like a king. The gall. You cheap bastards cut our throats in the airline industry. You can fly straight to hell as far as I'm concerned. I hope every single flight is the flight from hell, for you. That's what YOU wished on me. Same to you....right back at ya. How do you like that?

  • @JetMechMA ..only wanted a drink of water not anything else......so are you saying a smile with genuine facial moves comes with a $2 charge(at the hint of?... get over yourself and the industry....i never wished anyhing on you man,it's just a comment,and,it's by these comments that regular people like myself are judged by...i TOTALLY respect the job of flights attendants and pilots that they do every day....ALL YEAR ROUND....bar some dickheadheads that ruin it all for the rest. happy Easter!

  • @JetMechMA READ THE MESSAGE AGAIN man-woman,.......it was a translantic to Dublin,Ireland not Dublin-Ohio....over 7 hours.....sorry for asking for a glass of water....i'll try to tone it down next time

  • @noelio67 Just a tip, don't drink tap water on the airplane. Only bottled water. The tap water is stored in a tank and that tank is regulated by the health department I think. The airline must keep fresh water in the tank and/or clorinate it every three days. It's a stainless steel afair in the bowels of the plane....who knows what the inside of that thing looks like. Airline employees never drink airplane tap water. Make sure it is bottled water if you want water. Coffee is boiled. Coffee is OK

  • Is that flight attendant Ali Larter ?

  • The main reason why they charge a little extra is to protect themselves from higher fuel costs. That way they can keep fares low.

  • how much for a lil' happy ending?

  • "if you want to check in 36 hours in advance instead of 24, that fee is 10 dollars. thanks for choosing southwest"...no strings attached my ass

  • @lafayette2285 Why would you check in that early anyways.

  • @Hatchwork because southwest has their stupid "first come first served" game where the first to check in get the best seats, and the last to check in have to sit in the middle seats. while normal airlines block seats so last minute families booking can sit together, southwest will split kids from their parents without a care

  • "How far are they gonna go"? It's America. They're probably already there.

  • Go Southwest Go!

  • Southwest > *

  • Why doesnt southeast put such a fee into ticket fare?

  • Because they Are awesome

  • If I need to use the restroom, I would just go in my pants! That would save me $4.00!

  • @2625191514

    that girl is the OTHER airline - SW doesn't do that - that's the whole point!

  • @justtubingit I'd pay for a decent sized bathroom for once.

  • fuckin shit ... ill bring my own peanuts...suck ma balls

  • Comment removed

  • Look at the guys face at 0:17 LOL

  • are you kiding

  • They cost less not like no frills airlines which will coast $100.94 dollars.

  • You all are noobs! Mexicana and Aereomexico are both OPEN BAR airlines, thats right! all the drinks you want are FREE, and not just some lame beer but REAL drinks! and on top of that Mexicana has the world record for most punctual airline in the world :)

  • Do they have Pacifico beer? That's the BEST!

  • I'm pretty sure they do and yes Pacifico beer is very nice; try Mexicana next time, just don't go crazy, getting drunk on a plane is way different than on ground, been there myself LOL xD

  • that's because they're too drunk to know what time it is. lol

  • So thats why they are on time?! cuz they are drunk? thats a bizarre concept!

  • no, that's not what i meant. what i mean is if they are drunk they have no idea what time it is.

  • Oh! you mean the passengers! I thought you meant the crew hahahaha! xD

  • sorry but no airline can change the weather so stfu

  • Duh!

  • Best service I ever had was on Japan Airlines. Free sound-cancelling headphones if you returned them, the best movies I've ever seen on a damn flight, on personal terminals on the seatback in front of you. And, get this. SNES games on the console.

    First time I've ever not wanted to get off an airplane.

  • wow snes?

    love to try it

  • yeah. it was awesome.

  • I was on Air Canada, service was better than I thought, snacks and Beverages exept for things like beer and wine were free. Pillows at $3 or $5 dollars and earphones at $3, any currency you have!

  • i love SWA. all the other US carriers should be grounded permanently. America should open its skies to foreign airlines immediately, to restore proper service. i would love to fly Virgin Air (for instance) on domestic routes. or, OMG, Sing Airlines ! can u imagine ? no more of these 60 year old, brittle, women who hate their lives serving as attendants.

  • MadTV ripoff.

  • It is not Mad TV...

  • I like Delta.. It's probably my favourite airline.

  • the best airline is china eastern airlines! with no service and always cancelled

  • I just flew American Airlines-- they served free beverages , but no snacks. Airlines let you bring your own snacks onboard, though, and beverages purchased at the airport. Oh, they let me bring two pieces of luggage, too... for a mere extra $40 ! (Havent flown in a couple years, so that was unpleasant surprise.) Now I see why everyone brings such huge carryons onboard these days.

  • Every flight I had on airtran I was yelled at for eating my own sandwich!

  • Airtran just started allowing sub sandwiches from the airport restaurants, to be eaten onboard.

  • OMFG ME TOO THIS SUX

  • they are bad

  • My absolute favourite airline is Delta Air Lines...been flying with them my entire life. Although when Delta's price are way too high I fly Southwest, my second favourite U.S. airline :)

  • no.... northwest and delta are the best no matter hat company northwest all the way...... btw u get free snacks....... because u pay for it with the airline ticket :D thats y u read the fine print

  • I think US AIRWAYS is BETTER and im not saying southwest isnt great but there ok.

  • US AIRWAYS has been reduced to crap since the merger.

  • southwest is the greatest airline, there is no question, they have the best customer service and the flight attendants actually treat you like human beings unlike every other airline, plus you get free drinks and snacks

  • southflorida704, all airlines give you free drinks and snacks. It's the food items like sandwiches that you have to pay for. And being 'treated like a human being'? That depends on who the flight attendent is. (since they're human too, and I bet that you don't treat everyone 'like a human being' all the time) I've met many nice flight attendents on other airlines.

    United is my favorite. The people on it have always treated me with the upmost respect.

  • that is really true

  • this is exactly what air canada does omg hate it.

  • so to use the bathroom it's $4

  • no its not as bad as this

  • ohh

  • haha canada xD omgf,.rofl,lawlz win ,WIN WINN!!!

  • Fees are good--people should pay for what they use, and those of us who do NOT use those things should not have to pay so that you can have them!!

  • okay, im sorry doesnt southwest charge for alchoholic bevrages? And blankets I think too?

  • it does charge for alcohol< which it is required to do so by law, however i am unaware of the blankets...

  • How far is SouthWorst going to go without having a logo? Better colors? Better paint scheme?

  • I call them shitworst

  • Lol. Probably a better name for them.

    :D

  • they do have the heart in wings shape? but i think that not having a logo may be better in some cases.

  • Yeah, but is it visible to the naked eye from 500 feet or more? No.

    Is it painted right on the tail? No.

    Why have desert or bright baby colors for an airplane scheme? It's looks like my dogs vomit after she ingested an acorn.

  • it isnt painted on the planes, but it is on the bulkheads of aircraft, ticket sleeves, check in desks, crew uniforms etc. Even at the end of this ad, the is the ledgendary web-logo...

  • It's painted on side of the fuselage!

    Rather fly AirTran than this piece of trash airline.

  • i've flown AirTran...the're nowhere near as fucking good as this airline....the service on SW is better pilots on SW are better and FAs on SW are 60000x better...

  • Of course.

    Kids love "friendly" airlines like Southwest.

    I'm guessing you're a teenager.

    If your like me, I like to go professional.

    Southwest is not the way to go if you want good cabin service and accommodations.

  • shut up dude really...let me guess you're one of those stupid kids who thinks he knows eveything but really in fact does not know jack shit...

  • Why should I shutup? YOU charged at me wanting a battle.

    Is that right?

    And I'm not a kid. I think you can clearly see that in my grammer, punctuation, etc.

  • You spelled grammar wrong.

  • Comment removed

  • @DavidJMcCarthy it is a word

  • @DavidJMcCarthy fucking idiot

  • @ccmfc7lfc how rude! I'm sorry I made a mistake but you don't have to be so incredibly mean, your a total ass.

  • Your grammar, (Yes, you spelled grammar wrong you piece of shit). And "Grammer" + Punctuation has nothing to do with your age. you are obviously a very stupid and ignorant moron!

  • No one is going to take you seriously on YouTube of all places when you point out that your "grammer" is correct. Also the fact that you have "XxX" in front of and after your name does not help the fact that you are "not a kid". Christ.

  • im gonna end this because i hate arguements, southwest raps, united breaks guitars, the end

  • Yeah, good luck at trying to end a YouTube comment argument. And I'm sure United goes out of their way to break guitars.

  • No airlines do not charge all of these things obviously this is a thing trying to get you to buy tickets

  • wow. you got that all by yourself? It's called "advertisement", I suppose.

  • hahaha fail

  • She's so right on! Oh man, the major airlines-she nails it! They CHARGE FOR EVERYTHING! $7 for a pillow/blanket set RU kidding me! Been there unfortunately. Not sure if anyone even knows what all is a separated charge til they get on the plane. Heard many bitch about it. This chick is great -dead on! Kudos to SW--great ad. I just wish you were in more cities around the country!

  • No it sounds like a mixture of crazy American Based Airlines.

  • SAUDIA AIRLINES ROCKS

  • Suck on a panda's smelly asshole!!!

  • its RYANAIR!, you pay everything coz u pay cheap, LOL.

  • MADtv stole the idea from this commercial!

  • fucking hell with them !! sneek nip bottles on the plane !!!!!

  • wow i saw this commercial during every commercial break for the dbacks through the 08 seson....it is etched in my brain

  • I personally like jetBlue better.

  • Yea so do i

  • Us airways now charge $ 2 for a soft drink. Southwest, Virgin American, Alaska, and American are the only airlines that i know don't charge for soft drinks.

  • I'd like a bj for

  • I thought it was ridiculous that any airline would even think of charging a passenger to use the restroom - until the Irish airline Ryanair proposed a £1 (about $1.43 USD as of Feb. 27, 2009) fee this week to use their planes' bathrooms!!

    From what ABC News said tonight, the customer reaction against Ryanair's proposal was swift and severe.

  • those really really really low cost flights arent good for long flights anyway...

  • I had no problem in the summer of 2005 when I took a nonstop trip from PHL (Philadelphia, PA) to OAK (Oakland, CA) and back!

    The flight out was the very first time I had ever flown.

    I wish Southwest still flew that route! There's a '72 Vista Cruiser in Alameda, CA that I'd love to go pick up...

  • Why? On Southwest you actually get service from the beginning to the end. On other airlines it's one drink, a snack you pay for and rude service,

  • jetBlue is also very very good.

  • @Supermom3717 I wish Southwest had Southwest Express or Southwest 717s. I only fly Southwst but I have to drive to Lousivlle Ky from Richmond Ky to fly SWA.

  • @Supermom3717

    Ha! I agree with you! :)

    I've always flown on Contentinal Airlines, and all I got there was a small little drink of soda and an effin bag of peanuts. Before I flew with SW, I was upset a bit because I thought Contentinal was the only "classy" airlines. I was mad that my mom was gonna make me fly on it. But they gave me loads of free hot chocolate with these awesome heart straws in it :) I probably sound immature right now, but hey, I'm only 14. I've done a lot of traveling <3

  • Good call, I was going to post about RyanAir and then saw your post first. My parents went from Ireland to England, a one hour flight when already on holiday in Ireland. They said it was the worst experience ever. A 1 hr flight

  • I understand southwest is a low cost carrier but this commercial is completely stupid for them. They don't have magazines, they don't even has TVs, and the only food they offer is peanuts. I'm allergic to peanuts! US carriers should really go back to the way they were, in 02 i flew from JFK to LAX with delta and got huge hot meal. Flew again this year, and only got one drink and of course, PEANUTS :(

  • fantastic ad! love the way she hangs up the phone!

  • Showing that one attendant with a bigger wad of cash would have been more accurate. Always am kind of struck by the symbolisim when I see them walking down the aisles with a huge stack of bills in their hand. Yes your wallet is getting raped and here's a reminder.

  • her uniform would definitely look good on my floor.

  • It's kind of a pin in the ass when they leave their name tags though. Friends who come over ask questions.....

  • Exactly. That's between me and the hot stewardess.

  • Bitch!!!

  • Who? The stewardess?

  • Woow that is definately not a crappy southpest cabin

  • OMG!! ITS JETSTAR !!! :P

  • HAHAHAHA! IT IS!!!

  • i was on a flight a couple weeks backs and i thought the fuckin engine was going to fall out of the plane...seriously. flew in to chi-midway

  • aint that the truth. SWA for ever!

  • Express Jet (now defunct) charged $5 for "trail mix" but gave you a stale cressant roll and cheese for free

  • That sounds like a Spirit Airlines Flight Attn. When is SWA gonna fly into Atlantic City N.J. (ACY)? It's a great airport, has a great ILS, the FBO is very good and have nothing to do most of the day. Spirit Airlines is running the show there....And what a shabby operation they are. SWA could CLEAN UP there. ACY is building a brand new $92million terminal and just completed a 6 story parking garrage that NOBODY uses! Jet Blue diverts there all the time when it just sprinkles in JFK or LGA.

  • but atlantic city is trashy anyway lol

  • Trashy? Come on. So what there's casinos and hookers everywhere...JetBlu or SWA would clean up there. The landing fees aren't half as bad as LGA, JFK or EWR. And there's no noise abatement prods like DCA and LGA after hours.

  • Well, I've only seen the town, rather than the airport. ;)

  • Well, in all honesty, the 'town' has cleaned up a bit and it's really not as trashy as it was a short while ago. It's getting better. It's a bitch to park in Atlantic City in the summer but ppl normally only 'visit' on a day to day basis. Brigantine is MUCH nicer a place to stay.

  • well, i was only there once... in 2001

  • It's changed alot since then. What airline do ya work for?

  • Gotta Love Southwest.

  • The airline in this ad that Southwest are mocking is pretty much like JetStar Australia.

    It's hard to believe that what used to be free can cost so much.

    By the way, if you pay for the pillow and blanket, are they your's to keep, or is that just the rental fee?

  • I think its yours...

  • I love southwest airlines :)

  • The airline in this ad that Southwest are mocking is pretty much like Ryanair

  • My name is southwestpark95 and it has nothing to do with southwest airlines lol wtf :P

  • Once they get you into the air, they can take

    the shirt off your back.

  • She looks like Iron Chef Cat Cora!

  • true:)
