Southwest does it right again
 
Some may call it trashy.... Although I think that it is just good marketing:

Thats one way to make sure the ramp agents will be out there to work the flight.

Yeah, but there might also be operational risks associated with that...

"GROUND, SWA. You want us to taxi all the way around there??? But that will take us around the south complex and the tower??? Why can't we just go straight to to the gate?

These guys @ SWA are pure marketing geniuses!!! Just think of the revenue that will be generated. Sounds like they re-visited the old National Airlines marketing ploy...."Hi. I'm Debbie. Fly me." This time, they painted a picture on the fuselage. Brilliant.:D

Looks like maybe Bar Refaeli? She is a gorgeous, gorgeous model.

Didn't we just kick a girl off one of our jets for dressing like that?

I was thinking of the operational risks of the ground crews; not paying attention to what they are doing because they will be too busy looking at that plane.

How do you fill out the flight plan? "Flesh tone over blue?"
