Thank you to @POTUS for his leadership in supporting the Blender’s Tax Credit for Sustainable Aviation Fuel, which is crucial for de-carbonizing aviation. We look forward to collaborating with all stakeholders across our industry to meet our climate goals. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

I always enjoy speaking with my friend @jimcramer & Crew CNBC this morning—my last as CEO. I think I first appeared on CNBC 25 years ago. A lot has changed since then, but one constant has been the heart and soul of the People of SWA. cnbc.com/video/2022/01/…

Congrats to my friend Doug Parker on a long and successful run as CEO of AA. I recently “roasted” Doug in a video tribute when he was honored with the 2021 WINGS Club Foundation Distinguished Achievement Award, and I couldn’t think of a better time to share it!

During the past 15 years, we’ve sent more than 700 families with children facing serious illness to the Happiest Place on Earth, partnering with @KiddsKids. This year’s trip was made particularly special as the nephew of one of our volunteer Pilots was selected to go on the trip.
Southwest Airlines@SouthwestAir

We've partnered with @KiddsKids for 15 years to send families on the trip of a lifetime. Our Pilot, Keltner, has volunteered at the sendoff since 2015 and has flown the Dallas-Orlando flight. This year, there was a special passenger onboard: his nephew, Gabriel. #KiddsKids
