I’d rather SW stays as they are. I try and only fly them. I can change my flight a million times with no cancellation or change fee, I can book several flight months ahead for lower rates, and then cancel last minute for which dates work best. Once they assign seats, we will soon pay for seats and pay for luggage. Then the flight rates you see will be like the other airlines and almost double in actual cost by the time you add in seat selection and baggage check. I really cannot stand airlines that charge for even carry ons!
