Arrival into StL was without issue and bags were off quickly - no major complaints about Southwest on this trip. It's been a few years since I've flown Southwest and certainly not since they did assigned seats and bag fees. Still, the plane was larger and newer and more spacious than Delta and American and plenty of room for bags. The flight wasn't packed full of people shoulder to shoulder and the flight attendant let me sit one row behind with no one in the row. read more

Southwest Airlines - Airlines Near Me - St Louis, Missouri

I had a great flight coming into St. Louis Missouri and going out back to Las Vegas. Southwest Airlines is one of the main carriers at the St. Louis Lambert International Airport. It operates out of Terminal 2 or Concourse E in the Airport. Since 1985, Southwest has been a part of St. Louis network. The infrastructure has expanded over time at Terminal 2 East side or the E Gates for Southwest. With Southwest operating from the same terminal and concourse at St. Louis, this helps with connection times! The location of the ticket counters, check in kiosks, bag drop, security checkpoints, and all gates are in the Terminal 2 / Concourse E area. There is no need to transfer to other terminals at this airport if you're flying Southwest, which is great! When I left for Las Vegas on a Tuesday evening around 5:00 P.M, it was quick to go from the gate! I had to check in my bag first. Luckily, the self service kiosk was easy to use. I scanned my bar code, purchased the check bag for 1, and then brought it to the bag drop off. Going through security was fast! There wasn't any lines at this terminal! It took about 5 minutes to get through security and an additional 10 to get to the gate! Boarding for the flight was on time, with no delays! This is great airport to fly with Southwest! read more

I am a very frequent Southwest customer. I hold Companion Pass status, am A-List, and fly Southwest regularly for business--often weekly or every other week. Unfortunately, my recent experience traveling from St. Louis to Reagan National Airport was one of the worst travel experiences I have ever had. Upon boarding, I sat in the third row aisle seat as I typically do. Initially, I sat on the wrong side of the row because I accidentally referenced an old boarding pass. Another passenger pointed it out, and I immediately moved to the correct seat. A flight attendant also asked me to place my carry-on slightly farther back because it would not fit in the overhead bin sideways. This is the same suitcase I have used for years on Southwest flights without issue. After everyone had boarded and we were seated, a flight attendant approached and asked to see my boarding pass. I assumed she was confirming my seat assignment due to the earlier mix-up. Instead, without explanation, my suitcase was removed from the aircraft and gate-checked. I was simply handed a gate-check tag and given no explanation as to why my bag was being removed. Upon arrival in Washington, D.C., I went to baggage claim late that evening. When my suitcase arrived on the carousel, it was severely damaged. The zipper had been ripped apart, the bag appeared crushed, clothing had fallen out, and personal items were exposed on the conveyor belt. I was forced to retrieve clothing and personal items from the carousel in front of other passengers, which was both embarrassing and frustrating. The suitcase was so badly damaged that the handle would no longer retract. Items continued falling out as I attempted to leave the airport. My Uber driver had to assist me in loading and unloading the bag because it could no longer function properly. I immediately contacted Southwest that evening while traveling to my hotel and reported the incident. The representative apologized but did not advise me that I needed to file a separate claim within 24 hours. The following day I was in Washington, D.C. on business from early morning through late evening, attending meetings and client dinners. As soon as I had an opportunity on my departure day, I contacted Southwest again to resolve the issue. At that point I was informed that I had missed the 24-hour claim window, despite having already reported the incident immediately after it occurred. I find this process extremely frustrating, as the initial representative never informed me that additional action was required. As a result of this incident: * My suitcase was destroyed and had to be replaced. * I was forced to take time away from business meetings to purchase a replacement suitcase. * Several personal items had to be discarded after being exposed and damaged. * Two shoes are missing, leaving me with mismatched pairs. The replacement value alone is approximately $500. * I incurred additional expenses and significant inconvenience during a business trip. When I returned to the airport, the Southwest customer service agents were professional, kind, and apologetic. However, I was told that the only immediate resolution available was a $100 travel voucher. To date, I have only received one $100 voucher and have received no meaningful follow-up regarding the damage, lost items, or reimbursement request. What is most disappointing is that this situation was entirely avoidable. My bag was removed from the aircraft without explanation, damaged while in Southwest's possession, and the reporting process was not properly communicated when I first contacted customer service. I am requesting that Southwest review this incident and provide appropriate reimbursement for: * The destroyed suitcase * Missing shoes and damaged/lost personal belongings * Out-of-pocket expenses incurred to purchase a replacement suitcase during my trip What made the experience even more disappointing was the behavior of the flight attendant involved. Throughout boarding, she appeared visibly irritated and unprofessional. I personally witnessed multiple interactions with passengers that reflected the same attitude. One passenger boarding the aircraft referred to her as "an asshole" after an interaction. Another passenger politely asked how she was doing and was met with a response along the lines of, "I'm not happy," which prompted comments from nearby travelers about how rude she and he was being. As a loyal Southwest customer, I am asking Southwest to make this right. I have invested years of loyalty in your airline, but this experience has left me seriously reconsidering whether I should continue flying Southwest for my business travel. I look forward to hearing from someone who can properly review and resolve this matter. read more

Just got my luggage back. It was damaged, looked like someone tried to claw their way in. Brand new suitcase checked at DAL without any damage. Called southwest and they told me to go back to STL to file a damaged bag report, even though it was declared damaged at DAL for some reason. They told me to go through a supervisor because the agent told me they can't do it. So, we turned around and came back to this airport to talk to baggage claim support and they wouldn't file a report. The supervisor came and wouldn't do it for me. Now I'm left without a suitcase and no way to buy a new one. $50 voucher for Southwest won't get me a new suitcase back. Hope Southwest can get their stuff together! read more

Quick and easy check in process. I got to enjoy the perks of being a credit card holder. Free checked bag, and early bird check in. The ticket agent was friendly early in the morning. She did however mislead me to believe that I could get reimbursed a checked bag fees for someone that was flying with me. Flight was smooth, flight attendants were friendly, and ensured everyone had a great flight. read more

As fate would have it, I booked and flew on SWA the first day of assigned seating. This took place due to a weather-related cancellation on American Airlines. "Choice extra" seemed the way to go. Though the seats included two bags (and we needed only one each) and an inflight premium drink coupon (which we didn't use) Therese H and I were happy about the extra legroom seats and flexibility to change our return a bit later than scheduled, if desired. Thanks, SWA, for getting us where we wanted to be during winter weather. read more

I am a BIG fan of flying Southwest. This particular flight from st. Louis to fort Meyers the crew was very fun. Lots of jokes and interactions that brought me a smile. Decent flight that was full.

Southwest Airlines is always our choice when traveling to new destinations. Employees are always welcome and helpful and they get you to where you beed to be for your flight.

All in all a good experience. Boarding was easy, plane was less than half full (haven't sen that in years). Staff and flight attendants were all nice. My only complaint was I had two free drinks and the FA said let him know if I wanted a second. Guy across from me also told him he wanted a second beer but FA never came back. No turbulence or anything, just never came back for over an hour of remaining flight. read more

The good news for all the airlines is they are all equally bad. Southwest, or as I lovingly call it, Southworst. First step, you get herded into the boarding line like cattle at a state fair. Second step, marvel at the miracle of 20+ wheelchairs rolling on, but somehow by touchdown, everyone's healed. No wheelchairs necessary. Jesus must have been on this flight. Everyone is cured. Third step, share a cabin with once a lifetime vacationers who treat air travel like it's their first time on a roller coaster. Zero travel etiquette. Maybe I'm just crabby and cynical from flying almost every week for 15+ years. read more

I love SW! And Matt who worked the MSY to St. Louis flight on Friday morning is great to me.

I'm not a fan of Southwest Airlines. This is the second time I've had to fly Southwest in 2025 and the second time I've dealt with flight delays. I'm also not a fan of the seating situation. It's like a cattle call! read more

My gosh today Southwest was absolutely horrible. However, the staff and the pilot were amazing. I was going to St. Louis. It took me 14 hours almost to get there from Sacramento. We were stuck on a plane for two hours on the tarmac and but the staff kept us entertained in a comment. They were very attentive Then on the way back there was another delay with the engine and then we almost missed my flight my connecting flight in Long Beach. Then we got on there and then I made it home and there was not even extra snacks given but the staff and everything was really good very accommodating .the pilot, He was very informative and kept us updated so the crew was absolutely amazing but Southwest I need you to do better and I love you guys read more

Southwest Airlines has always been my airline of choice, I am giving a 3 star because of my most recent experience. I was on time for my 7:50am flight, the check in process went smoothly I have TSA precheck I believe that helped alot. Once I arrived to my gate I received a message stating the flight was delayed for 30 minutes okay no big deal, then shortly thereafter another text message came with a flight delay then another then another. The last flight delay message came making me aware that the flight would not leave until 1:30pm, because of the flight delay I missed my ride from the airport that I was landing at, Southwest did offer a 30 dollar meal voucher for 2, which was nothing special as expensive as airport food is in this day and that didn't compare to the amount of money that was spent on 2 plane tickets, I know thinks happen but I really disappointed in Southwest Airlines this go round. I am also sending an email to Southwest Airlines as well. read more

We loved SWA...we have been loyal customers for 20 plus years ...we even have the credit card.

Always efficient. Not too small but not too big. Lots of food options and they taste great.

I know SW airline is a low cost airline and am very aware of the open seating, however when you have paid for as many seats this year as I have, I have almost 100,000 points and I get a C09 boarding position, that tells me I am not valued. I flew everyone to a wedding, took another trip to the coast and a few other flights mixed in and still a C! I clicked on my phone the moment the clocked turned to the boarding time, 24 hours before and still I get a C position. My friends who I paid for there seats got both A & B positions. There is something wrong with there system and I will not be flying with them in the future. I will sell my points on line and do business with a company who values me as a good customer. read more

There's been confusion around bag fees and assigned seating. It seems like flying basic doesn't guarantee you a seat if you need to make a connection. read more

I will NEVER fly SW again after being a faithful decades-long customer... Now with their seat assignments I'll happily fly Delta instead...was automatically assigned a middle seat... I waited until 25min before boarding to see if I could switch to an aisle or window at the gate & was told it would cost me. Yet the guy ahead of me was a stand-by, non-revenue customer & given a boarding pass + an aisle seat... There WERE still other NON-MIDDLE seats but they wouldn't give it to me... Will NEVER fly you all again!!! read more

I'm not a fan of the way that Southwest Airlines does their seating. I've just seen far too many people roll up in a wheelchair and somehow, inexplicably, they have a miracle cure on the flight that allows them to walk up and down the isles. I mention this because they get priority seatings ahead of those who paid a premium for the front seats. I have no issue with people who are legitimately struggling but far too many are gaming the system. Rant over! read more

I've never been at a Southwest Airlines console this unaccommodating, rude, and disorganized. A few of the other passengers waiting and I didn't see a sign saying we couldn't sit in a particular area. A worker promptly started sarcastically asking us ridiculous questions to get us to move. Further, the staff said they couldn't check me in because I was too early. Again, I've honestly never experienced this with any other airline, and it makes me reluctant to want to fly SW to St. Louis ever again. The on-flight experience was to be expected: crowded, haphazard, and managed by overworked flight attendance. Not ideal. read more

Southwest Airlines - Airlines Near Me - St Louis, Missouri

A few years back I bought tickets for my grown kids and my boyfriend at the time to go to NOLA to visit my daughter. I had to change the dates which left us with approx $200 each in flight credits. We do not fly often, but when I did decide to go again, I was not able to use any of the credits because they were in my kids and boyfriends names. I PAID FOR THESE ALL WITH MY CREDIT CARD!!!! They refused to let me use them. Since then, luckily all the kids have been able to use theirs, I just booked a flight and am using mine. The one for my now Ex-boyfriend will just be left because I cannot use it and he will NEVER use it as he does not travel. Due to this, I will no longer book my flights with Southwest. I truly hope the $200 they refuse to let me use that I PAID FOR! is worth losing many thousands in future travel money. Sounds like and AWESOME business practice to me. read more

St. Louis to Las Vegas to Reno So another stellar flight from the folks at Southwest. They were delayed 30 minutes because of a late aircraft. But, the staff were focused and made up much of that time with quick seating and organization. All with some pretty dry humor. Know that there's a Southwest comedian with a pony tail in St. Louis whose funny as hell and every bit as efficient. The plane blitzed down the runway and was wheels-up before we knew it. Nice job. The wonderful ladies hooked us up with full cans of complimentary cola and water. The navigator dropped us south of a nasty thunder boomer that we got to watch out of the port side window. I'll share some footage with you. That maneuver added 15 minutes to the flight time but I feel it was well worth it. About the only down side was when Mother Nature selected my number, both rear bathrooms were occupied and one of the flight crew was using the third. I walked the plane a couple of times because you can't stand up near the front of the plane (we were in the second row). There's a whole homeland security issue with flight crew in the privy. The fly boys then did a tag team on the front potty while somebody was reading "War and Peace" in the back two. Now three of us are in the middle of the plane doing some bizarre pee-pee dance while Captain Chatty decides to chat-up the flight attendants. Of course, we can't approach the lavatory until Mr. Personality takes his dusty arse back to the cockpit and allows us to move freely about the cabin. A pretty quick flight with some kewl entertainment even though we couldn't really hear the cockpit announcements. But who really listens to those? 06/22 read more

I do really like Southwest Airlines and although they recently received poor press that would not change my mind on travel, especially personal when I make the choice. Service and pricing seem to be my biggest two reasons for continued return. This review is specifically for the Saint Louis Lambert International Airport Southwest. Flight crews in and out were professional and flights were early arrival at the gate. I did have a computer glitch on departing from the kiosk checking a bag. A roaming customer service rep asked I go to the desk which had no line. Staff was apologetic and took care of my check quickly. She also chatted a bit which was nice. This was my first flight with Southwest since the airlines poor press for cancellations last month. I could sense they were trying harder to please travelers. I will continue to fly them and recommend. read more

The airport is clean, the restrooms are clean, and many restaurants are here for dining or take out. Starbucks gets the most attention. It's super crowded and really long lines. read more

They make you gate check tiny bags, you get on the plane and there's tons of space. They don't take any responsibility for their mistakes. They lie about how bad the delays are. They are somehow consistently rude and behind schedule. Don't put up with this airline, it's just never worth it. read more

My husband and I flew on some of the first flights that started the company's new policy. The main change at that time was added bag fees. For the two round trip flights, it was an added $460 to our "bargain fares." They didn't have assigned seating yet, but, because so many more people carried their luggage onto the plane, we were delayed in boarding because they kept trying to get people to volunteer checking their bags--for free (After we payed $460 to do the same thing right up front.) The flight attendants were not the usual Southwest happy people, They were harried and not smiling--you could tell they weren't happy with the changes and ended up taking the brunt of the passengers' unhappiness. No, I don't want another credit card and no, I don't want to be assigned seats away from my husband or seats that herd us like cattle. I just want Southwest to honor their promise to their customers of "Bags fly free," and "Bag fees, never had them, never will." This change is a definite breach of a promise that Southwest made to their customers. Poor choices,Southwest. I flew to Puerto Vallarta in January. We took American, they never lied to us. read more
