Kamehame-HA! Southwest Airlines Dumps Free Bags Like Yamcha After a Fight!

What?! No More Free Bags? Is This Frieza's Doing?

Hey everyone it's Goku! I just heard some crazy news. Southwest Airlines you know the one that used to let you fly with two bags for free? Well they're changing things up kinda like when I go Super Saiyan. They're starting to charge for checked bags! Can you believe it? It's like saying I can't have any more senzu beans after a tough fight. Starting soon it'll cost ya $35 for the first bag and $45 for the second. Guess those airline folks are looking to power up their wallets just like Vegeta always wants to power up his strength.

Airlines Powering Up Their Wallets!

Apparently these baggage fees are a big deal. Last year airlines in the U.S. raked in nearly $7.3 billion from them! That's a lot of money enough to buy a whole bunch of training facilities for me and Gohan. Southwest held out for a long time but it seems the pressure to make more zeni (that’s money in our world!) finally got to them. They've been making all sorts of changes like getting rid of open seating which kinda reminds me of the time I had to learn to drive. It was a total disaster!

The New 'Basic' Fare: It's Like Being Stuck in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!

Southwest is also rolling out a new 'Basic' ticket just like those other airlines. It's like training with King Kai – you get the basics but it's not gonna be easy. You can't change your tickets you'll be boarding last and your credits expire faster than Krillin in a fight against a Saiyan. I can't believe they're also getting rid of the 'Wanna Get Away' fare. Seems like everyone's just trying to get away with charging more. Haha!

Exceptions? Phew Like Finding a Dragon Ball!

Don't worry not everyone's getting hit with these fees. If you're a top tier member of their Rapid Rewards program you get two free bags. And if you use a Southwest credit card you might get your first bag free. It's kinda like getting a Senzu Bean from Korin – it helps a little but it doesn't solve everything. So keep your eyes peeled and see if you qualify!

Assigned Seats? Is This the End of the World?

And get this: Southwest is even thinking about assigning seats! Can you believe it? It's like having to follow a specific training schedule. No more rushing to check in and trying to snag the best spot. They're even adding extra legroom seats that cost more. They're really trying to be like everyone else. I hope they don't lose what makes them special like my love for fighting strong opponents!

The People Are Angry! Time for a Spirit Bomb of Complaints!

People are NOT happy. Southwest can't even post a picture of a cute puppy without getting bombarded with angry comments. It's like when Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta – everyone's upset! But the CEO says they haven't seen fewer people booking flights. Maybe everyone's just too stubborn to give up on those reward points. We'll see how it goes. Maybe I'll just fly on Nimbus then I won't have to worry about bags at all!
