The deal was an absolute hit. Soon, crowds began to form at Southwest gates in Dallas, San Antonio, and Houston, wondering why this young, plucky airline was handing out enough bottles of booze to stock every bar in the great state of Texas. (7/8)pic.twitter.com/dSK8XNaerZ

Although a fifth of liquor was unlikely to retail for $13 at the time, Southwest calculated that our primary Customer-base, business travelers, were likely to expense their $26 tickets and pocket the booze for themselves. (6/8)

But what really generated buzz was the simple deal we offered: if they'll fly you for $13 dollars, so will we. But, we'll also offer a full priced $26 fare that comes with a gift worth $13: a fifth of liquor. (5/8)

After putting our heads together, we went on the offensive with a full page ad of our own, bearing a catchy tagline: "Nobody’s Going to Shoot Southwest Airlines Out of the Sky for a Lousy $13.” (4/8)pic.twitter.com/Lw63fFrV1L

In February of 1973, intending to put us out of business, Braniff Airlines (a bitter rival), introduced a $13 fare on its Dallas to Houston route, one of the few routes we were flying at the time.

Ever hear the story of Southwest's high-stakes $13 fare war with Braniff Airlines in February of 1973? Buckle up; it’s a good one. Spoiler alert: it involves thousands of bottles of liquor. (1/8)pic.twitter.com/A27YsHjh0w

As you can see from these shots from DAL (yes- Dallas, Texas), it's cold out there. We’re working hard to ensure the Safety of our People and our Customers, and many of our Customer Services channels are experiencing longer than average wait times. (1/2)pic.twitter.com/NfMeXoPT88

From Dustin: “What all of those perfect strangers and attendants did not know, was the emotionally tender state of two brand-new parents. Parents who after 9 years of trying had been blessed with their first child. Parents who felt scared, but determined in their new role.”pic.twitter.com/oIoxEfWKhi
