Southwest To Offer Flights to Mexico

So far, Southwest airlines has not been charging any extra or hidden fees (as evident by their recent commercials). Which is great since a lot of competing airlines has been charging a lot of extra a hidden fees. The only problem with Southwest is that it only travels throughout the United States.


On Monday, it was announced that Southwest will begin to sell tickets to Mexico (partnering with Volaris). starting in 2010. This announcement comes shortly after Southwest announced that it was in talks with WestJet Airlines to provide flights to Canada. Southwest is making these two deals by "code-sharing", which means that the companies will sell tickets for each others flights, and share the profit. Hopefully sometime soon, Southwest will offer low-price fares for international flights.
