Today was supposed to be Capt. Jon Jackson’s retirement flight with Spirit Airlines. After the airline’s sudden shutdown, he found himself heading home as a passenger, seated in the back of a Southwest flight with his son, Chris, a Southwest First Officer.

Chris casually mentioned to the flight’s Pilots that this would have been his dad’s retirement flight. They seized the opportunity to change the course of the day for Capt. Jackson. They alerted Dylan, a Southwest Dispatcher, setting into motion a plan that resulted in a proper retirement party when the flight landed in Baltimore. The Baltimore Airport Fire & Rescue met the aircraft with a traditional water cannon salute, and the Baltimore Ground Operations Team was waiting at the gate to welcome him with cheers and bottle of bubbly.

It was a powerful reminder of the aviation community’s ability to show respect, compassion, and solidarity when it matters most. Above all, this moment was about honoring a fellow aviator. Congratulations, and thank you for your service in the skies, Capt. Jackson.

Like father, like daughter! 🥰
 
Hanna recently joined Southwest as a First Officer, following in the footsteps of her dad, Captain Svein! He inspired her to start flying at the age of 15, and she was immediately hooked. She made it her mission to one day fly alongside him! 
 
Just 8 years later, she accomplished that mission serving as her dad’s First Officer on her very first Southwest flight. 
 
Welcome to the Southwest Family, Hanna! 💙❤️💛

We are a proud partner of the @honorflightnetwork, an organization dedicated to celebrating America’s veterans by flying them to Washington D.C. to share in a day of honor at our nation’s memorials.
 
While all of our Honor Flights are memorable, this one had an extra surprise as one of our Captains switched his schedule around to surprise his dad by piloting the flight!
 
This Veterans Day, and every day, we honor all those who have served and are still serving. Thank you for your bravery and sacrifice.

Happy 98th to Gena, queen of the skies 👑 

On her flight home the night before her 98th birthday, our Crew decided Gena deserved a special celebration. They brought a crown, handed her a margarita, and dimmed the cabin lights. Passengers lit up their call buttons as candles while the whole plane sang Happy Birthday. 🎉 

Join us in celebrating Gena’s 98th. Happy birthday, Gena!
