Count Bagula Haunts This Halloween...

By: Stuart Thomas

"It's the fall of 2009 and bag fees are reaching new heights all across the nation. Business travelers in Philadelphia report feeling haunted by a mysterious figure wearing a dark cloak and wielding a dangerous device resembling a calculator. Two detectives are summoned to interview the victims: a mummified corporate travel manager, an unlucky executive with last-minute travel plans and a tingling sensation in her neck, and a businessman whose legs meet a fate unfit to print. Before long, our detectives are just two steps behind crafty characters you'd never want to see behind airport ticket counters..."

Southwest Airlines Unveils "Green Plane"

By: Marilee McInnis - Manager Public Relations

At Southwest, we are all about innovation and have been since our inception.  Innovation isn’t necessarily something you can teach—it really is an attitude, a spirit, a little something extra.  I think we might even hire for it, but here at Southwest, we call it a “Warrior Spirit.” 

No, the paint isn’t green, (though there is a decal) and you probably can’t tell much difference on the interior, but our Green Plane is a “test lab” of eco-friendly products that we are evaluating.  What makes this so innovative is that we hope to be able to reduce the weight of the aircraft by up to five pounds per seat, saving fuel and reducing emissions while being good environmental stewards.  Yes, environmental decisions can also make good business sense!  And, we are the first airline to do something like this. 

Southwest has designated one aircraft, WN222, to serve as a test for these eco-friendly products and other future initiatives.  You can read all about the products we are testing in our press release.  We will have all sorts of information onboard about our environmental commitment and fun facts about Southwest.  The Green Plane will be in regular revenue service so we can evaluate normal wear and durability.  If you’re lucky enough to be on the Green Plane, expect a post-flight survey where we ask what you think and how we are doing.

The Green Plane (and having a future “test lab”) is a dream come true for the Southwest Green Team, and I am so in awe of our Maintenance and Engineering Team for being visionaries.  A huge shout out to our Marketing Team, who is trying to create a more comfortable ride for our Customers and helping us use eco-friendly products to do it.  Be on the lookout for the Green Plane coming to a city near you…
