Southwest Airlines Hints at More International Routes

Southwest Airlines has long positioned itself as more of a budget option for travelers, offering two free checked bags for every passenger, and open seating plan with no premium seats or packages, and limited flight options – especially domestically. However, it looks like Southwest is now trying to compete with other more premium airlines.

Earlier this year, Southwest Airlines announced the controversial decision to end its longstanding "Bags Fly Free" policy as well as its longstanding open-seating policy.
