Definitely not a deterrent to applying. Just seems strange that even the worst regionals all pay for parking now in base and Southwest doesn’t. I imagine parking at OAK and LAX must be ridiculously expensive.

Airside/Landside is $36/mo. I’m too cheap to pay $120/mo and waste an hour of my life waiting on parking shuttles.

I couldn’t remember the exact amount for airside landside. I knew it was in the 430s. I wasn’t sure if they raised it. It isn’t much different then waiting on the landside bus. Plus you get hail and snow protection.

Wonder what the dollar amount is of all the SWA employees parking is.

Maybe someone in the head office has a few “friends” in the parking business.

That said, still should be company paid parking.
