A Sharp Dressed Man

Just in from SWA Universe Headquarters. Our sharp dressed CEO, Gary Kelly, is spotted wandering the halls with guitar in hand. This year's pop culture sensation is Gary as Billy Gibbons of the legendary Texas band, ZZ Top. On the left is his Executive Assistant, Gillian Kelley (no relation), and on the right is his Chief of Staff, Nan Barry.

He's roaming the halls and he looks awesome, as do Gillian and Nan! And yes, when I asked him, he showed me that his guitar DOES spin around!

I hope you all realize this could really become cutting edge for pilot uniforms next year.

They look better, but I bet they stole that idea from US Airways. Hey guys, I thought you'd be more original. I expect you to dress as AC/DC next year. I have an how some dancing.

I want to say i enjoy riding on a good airlines like sw. Reading and seeing that the CEO seems pretty cool in the magazine. The people there work hard and are proud of their airlines! But i want to know why the CEO lets his company has 10 seats full out of 100 on a 747 and is happy with that? Cant understand the logic behind is thinking! I want to get on SW this next week, but y cant we have lower prices when i know i will experience the same thing; 10 out of 100 again! I like this company and hope that SW will fly forever. If the CEO is for real and wants to fill those seats and get a return of 1 million dollars a month comming back to SW airlines on my behalf. He needs to get in touch with me and lets get SW Rockin.......Take care and have a nice day.........Jimbo

GREAT costumes. I had a super flight today (1682 LAX - SLC) with a super crew. I wish there had been more Halloween stuff around, but I understand with the need for security, etc. Keep up the EXCELLENT work. It was a special flight - there was an American Airlnes pilot on his final deadhead flight, retiring today. Turns out he served with the same squadron as me in the Antarctic in the 1970s - what a small world! Southwest DEFINITELY helps keep everybody in touch with their history!

Funny thing - we just saw the real Billy Gibbons at the AMA airport!

My seatback and tray are in the upright position, and I'm ready to go!

Hey Tim C --
How do you know you didn't just see the REAL Gary Kelly at the AMA airport?
