They are all pretty much the same.

You get on the plane.
You sit in a seat.
The plane takes off.
The plane arrives in Hawaii.
You get off.

I fly SWA a lot, but never to HI. You gets snacks but entertainment is on your own device. You need to check in 24 hours ahead to get a space in line (not a seat). So if you plane originated on the east coast going to HI, could be fewer aisle/window seats available if you get on in CA.

Other than that, pretty good - never got sucked out of a window at 20,000 ft, but did happen once a few years ago.

“They are all pretty much the same” is pretty accurate.

They’re nice folks, no first class, and a relatively pleasant flight.

The advantage of SWA is, if you need to change flight after booking, you get the WHOLE price of the ticket back to use as a voucher for another flight at a later date.

Is this just your way of shoving this into the faces of the weather impaired people suffering from snow shoveling bad backs,delayed flights and bored homebound kids?? Oh sure..take your flight to HAWAII. Sit in the sun drinking mai tais and watching the most beautiful sunsets in the world while SOME of us eat canned chili and pray for the snow to let up. Put a top hat and a carrot nose on your snowman. Don’t forget his tropical shirt. Just know this: We will KNOW who you are. You’ll be the one with a great suntan....ah-CHOO...

lol! Have fun!

Southwest is okay for flights lasting no more than a few hours, but I wouldn’t like to be jammed in that tight for 6 hours.

Bring your own food! Eating peanuts on a long flight is lots of flatulence.

Have flown hundreds of times - my last Southwest flight (Hartford to Orlando) was the best I'd ever had, anywhere.

Was in an aisle seat reading my Bible and the stewardess kneels down next to me and tells me she just "witnessed" to her co-worker sitting in the jump seat next to her, who then accepted Jesus into her life.

Most Freepers might say: Huh? - but some of you know what I'm talking about.
The stewardess was so exited she had to tell someone - and I was the first person she saw reading a Bible - so I got to share in her Good News.
To a "believer" it doesn't get much better than that.

Yes, it’s fine, but bring your own meal(s). All airlines IMHO have disgusting food if they serve food at all.

Not too much to worry about... However if you are going to be on a SouthEast Airlines plane (with that glorious rising sun on the tail) approaching Hawaii from the east you could be in for some excitement...

I made the trip on the way to Viet Nam March 1967. We got to get out of the plane for about 20 minutes as they fueled the plane. I am not sure but I don't think SWA existed then. I do not know what airline I flew on. It took a very long time to get there.

A blonde-headed lady gets on the plane in San Francisco with an economy class ticket. This particular Southwest flight DOES have a small First Class section and she sits down there. A stewardess asks to see her ticket and sees that it is a coach ticket.

She tells the lady she must go back and sit in economy class per her ticket and the blonde says, "I'm blonde, I'm going to Hawaii and I'm not budging!". The stewardess argues with her for about five minutes and can't get her to move. She does and tells the Captain about the problem and he says that he will help. He goes back and tells her the same thing and the woman again says, "I'm blonde, I'm going to Hawaii, and I'm not budging!". After about another five minutes, frustrated and unwilling to call the Air Marshall into the fray, he goes back and sits down in the cockpit to think about it for a minute.

The co-pilot, who has had headphones on the whole time, notices something is wrong, removes his headset and asks the pilot what is going on. The pilot tells him the story. The co-pilot says to the pilot, "Don't worry, I'm married to a blonde. I'll take care of it. He hurries back to the woman, whispers something in her ear, and she immediately jumps up, hastens back to economy, sits down and shuts up. It's over.

Both the stewardess and the pilot ask the co-pilot what he told the woman to get instant cooperation, to which he replies, "I just told her first class wasn't going to Hawaii."
