a quick question: my girlfriend is flying from CMH to PHX tomorrow. for that long of a flight, is there any in-flight entertainment (besides the flight crew and flight attendants)? do their 737's have screens? if so, how many usually?

I don't think that SWA has any inflight entertainment, at least not when I worked for them. That costs money and SWA saves money - that is why they are "no frills."

Have her bring a good book or some magazines - perhaps a cd or dvd player. Also, make sure she brings something to eat.

Having just deplaned about an hour ago, SWA still has no inflight entertainment. They do, however, still provide you with a drink and some snacks which is more than you can say for some other airlines out there. On the plus sides, the seats seemed more comfortable than AA's or NWA.

Tell her to bring a book or a magazine.

The only inflight entertainment SWA has are the cabin crew, and you have to appreciate the sense of humor for it to really entertain... but they are more entertaining than you'll find on UA/AA....

Snacks are free and so are drinks - with the exception of alcohol. Pretty standard for most airlines. Some airlines have the "buy onboard" program, but not SWA. I would say to bring something that is sealed or buy it right before she gets on the plane. You might check the TSA website for her on the rules of what can go through security as far as food items.

Haha, I think I just made it there this week, hadn't noticed!!

I need a life too, If I make it to the top 15 I will retire.

After watching a few episodes of "Airline," I'm afraid to get on SWA. Kind of like traveling on Greyhound.

You are seeing a very small percent of the passengers that we carry. The other 99.99 percent would make dull reality TV.
