Dallas Love Field Time Lapse Video

By: Christi Day - Public Relations Coordinator

Our star video blogger, Bob Hurst, created this awesome time-lapsed video of our home base here at Dallas Love Field Airport - we're fast, but obviously not this fast! 

As you can see from the video, everyday is an operational ballet of sorts at Southwest; with each task precisely choreographed to ensure that safety and speediness go hand in hand.  Thanks Bob for creating such interesting footage!  

Oh and by the way, Paula parks her car at approximately the 2:26 minute mark...Brian, where are you?

Southwest Airlines Engine Washing

By: Christi Day - Public Relations Coordinator

Southwest Airlines signed an agreement to use an environmentally friendly engine-washing system in an effort to save on fuel and cut carbon emissions.

I wonder if there is a similar solution for my car engine??  Check out this video to see what it takes to wash an engine!

Duck Derby

By: Bob Hurst - Senior Analyst Technology

We just had our first annual Duck Derby on the Lazy River at Sea World in San Antonio.

Each of the 5000 ducks represents a current Employee who wrote a Welcome Note to one of our New Hires. It's all part of helping these new folks "get their feet wet."

Believe it our not, one of the little guys managed to get a huge lead on all the rest ... but the people who "owned" the top 25 ducks received prizes.

For more information about the Duck Derby, see Steve Heaser's blog and podcast.

OK - City Appreciation

By: Rob Hahn - Support Supervisor II, Customer Relations/Rapid Rewards

Recently, several Southwest Airlines Employees from all across the Southwest Airlines system packed their bags, boarded a red-bellied LUV jet and headed to Oklahoma City (OKC). The purpose of this visit was to do what we here at Southwest Airlines LUV to do--appreciate our Customers. To give you a little background, the Corporate Culture Committee is made up of over 100 Employees who volunteer their time to spread and help maintain the amazing Culture we have here at Southwest Airlines.

april-2008-057resize.jpgThere are Teams within the Culture Committee that visit the airports we serve, our Reservations Centers, Maintenance Bases, Provisioning Bases and Flight Crew Bases to show their LUV and appreciation to the Employees at those locations. Along with showing our LUV to our fellow Employees, we also want to take time to show our LUV to our valued Customers, and that's the purpose of the Customer Support and Appreciation Team.

OKC was our first Customer Appreciation visit for the year. We made sure we were at the airport first thing in the morning, so we could reach as many Customers as possible. cookieupdateresize.JPGWe set up tables filled with cookies, snacks, and Southwest Airlines goodies. One of our Customers' favorite things is the laminated baggage tags we make from a business card, or for those wanting to be creative, they can design their own. It was really neat to see the kid's (and even some of the adult's) faces light up when they saw all the stickers we had for them to personalize their baggage tag. Some folks even tried to pay us, thinking that we were selling the treats and baggage tags.

april-2008-052resize.jpgOne thing for sure, the Southwest Airlines Culture is not for sale. It's a gift from the 34,000+ Employees who work at Southwest Airlines. So, next time you are traveling, keep an eye out for our Team, as we would LUV to visit with you and make you a baggage tag! I've included a few photos from the event and many thanks go out to our video blogger, Bob Hurst, who created the great video.
