SWA can thank United & Delta for their current pay rates. UAL & DAL's contracts set the bar in 2000. Unfortunately they both had to take huge pay cuts while SWA was still making money so they didn't have to take the massive cut in pay.

SWA has not had to "adjust" their pay rates like the legacy carriers have had to do. Without 9/11, SWA would still be at the lower end of the pay rate spectrum.
