Mom wanted to buy a plane ticket from them but the variety of options and choice only priced to confuse her. It confused her enough for her to through up her hands and say, “let’s try southwest.” in fact Mon kept mentioning how much easier it was to order plane tickets on Southwest throughout the attempt at USAir.
The usability of the Southwest website was significantly easier. It was easy enough my mom was willing to pay more for the tickets (especially without having to pay for luggage). Plus she had the piece of mind she could change her flight if she wanted to go home sooner.
Simplicity made Southwest much more user friendly online and beyond.
I love paying by smart phone, but it is more telling how many others would too
