Southwest Airlines Announces Plan to Add Assigned and Premium Seating Options

Southwest Airlines (SWA) has announced big changes are coming to the airline, as the brand plans to deviate from its signature open seating policy. Beginning in 2025, SWA will offer assigned seating as well as premium legroom options.  The cabin design is still underway, but customers can expect features like larger overhead bins, in-seat power, better wifi, and more comfortable seats according to SWA. 

You can find more information about their plans here.

We will continue to update travelers during the transition and Cain agents will be available for support.
