Southwest Airlines has extended its flight schedule through to March 5, 2025, allowing customers to plan and book their travel well into the new year.
""We're positioning ourselves as a competitive choice in longer-term travel planning by displaying a greater depth of our schedule alongside our unique flexibility,"" said Southwest Airlines executive vice president and chief commercial officer Ryan Green.
The airline's vice president of network planning Brook Sorem added: ""This is a direct answer to Rapid Rewards members asking for more time to plan vacations and leisure travel, and to Southwest business customers who plan large-scale events months in advance to coordinate hotel and air bookings.""
Sorem added that the extended schedule can also facilitate the growing demand for longer-term planning for leisure travel.
