That's it. No other info. Nobody knows anything else, and if they say they do they are lying.

It could be huge HQ layoffs, it could be shrinking 20 stations, it could be any number of things. We are long on predictions and short on actual facts.

Two things most of the uber negative troll posters in this thread have in common:
1. They don't know anything.
2. They have some strange affinity for hating on Southwest and, by extension, the people that work there. It's very odd and weirdly personal sounding.

Tough times likely lie ahead for the whole industry. There is a big mismatch in capacity and demand right now and that is with a strong economy. Travel is changing. The companies that can crack that code will be the ones that succeed. Interesting times lie ahead for sure.
