Company Overview
Southwest Airlines Co. operates Southwest Airlines, a major passenger airline that provides scheduled air transportation in the United States and near-international markets. As of December 31, 2025, Southwest had a total of 803 Boeing 737 aircraft in its fleet and served 117 destinations in 42 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and ten near-international countries: Mexico, Jamaica, The Bahamas, Aruba, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Belize, Cuba, the Cayman Islands, and Turks and Caicos. The Company's business model emphasizes a point-to-point route structure rather than hub-and-spoke, enabling direct nonstop routing and competitive fares. Southwest generates revenue through passenger transportation, cargo services, and ancillary revenue streams including bag fees, seat selection fees, and loyalty program activities. The Company is executing transformational initiatives including assigned seating, redesigned boarding processes, international airline partnerships, vacation packages through Getaways by Southwest, 24-hour operations with redeye flights, and expanded distribution through online travel agencies. The Company maintains a low-cost structure through use of a single aircraft type (Boeing 737), focus on secondary airports, high asset utilization, and efficient operations. In 2025, the Company faced challenges including labor cost inflation from ratified contracts and volatile fuel prices, partially offset by improved fleet efficiency from aircraft modernization and fuel hedging termination.
