great video!! i’m from denver and have never been to colorado springs airport, so this was very educational!

[@Eyeofthemourning]

I always fly with SWA FROM KCOS to KPHX. Sometimes I connect there to KBUR. Besides the turbulence over the Rockies it’s always a good experience. Worth it to not have to drive all the way to KDEN.

[@kaidenmcgraw341]

I think I saw your flight in person because I saw my neighborhood and I see so many planes

[@HarveyReiss]

SWA is the best. If my final destination is within a 2 hour driving distance from where we landed, I going SWA. SWA does not nickel and dime you for everything. Good seat pitch and usually on time.

this is very scare, my cat sad

[@hgc159]

You left out the latest addition to the SWA experience - almost landing hundreds of feet short of the runway.

[@user-yh1cz2ed8y]

Could I get a straight flight from colorado springs to saint joe's missouri

[@brockarmstrong7597]

The only thing SWA need to do is get rid of the old 737-700 and buy more of the -8 -9 and maxs

[@Adumzzinthehouse]

Agreed. Hate flying the -700 cross-country.

[@alexruyle5821]

Worst model of the 737 ever.

[@wanderer410]

Surprisingly, Southwest doesn't partner with any airline.
