Southwest's 5 permanent route cuts
Southwest's new routes come at the expense of five permanent cuts being filed in conjunction with the schedule extension.
The affected markets are:
Atlanta — West Palm Beach, Florida (first operated in November 2013)
Burbank, California — New Orleans (new route that launched in June 2024)
Burbank — San Antonio (new route that launched in June 2024)
New York — Tampa (first operated in June 2017)
Long Beach, California — Kansas City, Missouri (new route that launched in March 2023)
Southwest didn't share more details about these cuts, including when they'd be made. Seemingly, these routes have been poor performers for the carrier as it more closely examines its network in the face of increased investor scrutiny.
