I'm sure in reality the could care less as long as they save on checked baggage fees

Kitten guillotine
 
It's actually a safeguard to ensure all kittens are dispatched. If the nose wheel does not do the job, and the kitten is flung upward and outward, the razor sharp fin will ensure success.

They had to come up with a replacement for their snarky "bags fly free" campaign.

Apparently this is the best they could do.

As if Southwest invented and has a f'n patent on them so they can sell cheaper tickets! I guess Southwest believes the traveling public is stupid enough to think everybody else's winglets don't work the same way.
Gimme a break!

Don't know. Not appropriate to ask her.
