I think if that happened the centerpiece on the special would be the violations by SWA mx a few years back.

Gross overstatement of the facts. Southwest is by leaps and bounds ahead of Allegiant in a wide variety of safety metrics. The real question is why all of the sudden does the media feel the need to front-page every squawk that WN goes through?

“A LOSS OF CABIN PRESSURE WHERE NO ONE WAS INJURED AND THE CREW DID EXACTLY AS TRAINED? GASP!”

Please. The media is over inflating issues, exactly like they did last year with United. Southwest is perfectly fine, the media just wants ratings.
