Southwest Airlines Co. says its Lubbock-to-Dallas flight schedule will be reduced during the first three months of 2009 because of routine flight schedule reductions that are implemented each period to ensure fuel and aircraft efficiency.
The Lubbock-to-Dallas flights on Southwest are known for jetting Texas Tech University students between the university in Lubbock and the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
On the winter schedule, Dallas-based Southwest (NYSE: LUV) is cutting three weekend flights from Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport to Dallas, leaving five flights on that same route during the weekend. The changes will be in effect during the company’s winter schedule, which runs from Jan. 11 through March.
In addition, a spokesman confirmed Tuesday that the airline will be temporarily eliminating its one weekend flight from Lubbock to El Paso during the winter months and reducing the number of weekend flights from Lubbock to Austin to two during the same period.
A spokesman calls the cuts routine and quite possibly temporary, considering Southwest re-evaluates its flight schedule every period. The winter schedule, which includes the changes, is one of the airline's slowest periods, the spokesman added.
The Lubbock flight schedule changes are separate from Southwest’s recent announcement that it will be cutting 190 flights from its winter schedule, beginning in January, to ensure the carrier is optimizing its flight routes and streamlining expenses. Southwest says those flight changes also are temporary and could very well change when the company drafts the next schedule.
