Southwest Ends an Era

travel southwest airline in flight Herb Kelleher steps down at Southwest Airlines after quite a ride.

It was a sentimental day over in Dallas yesterday when Herb Kelleher officially stepped down as Chairman of the Board of Southwest Airlines. It won’t, however, be the end of his involvement with the airline. He’s still going to be around for at least 5 years. Apparently he’ll be focusing on getting a more fuel efficient replacement for the airline’s 737s. Rumor has it that the new plane will be powered by Wild Turkey.

Very interesting stuff..!!

I am planning out for my new trip; this could be my vocational spot for this year.
Last year I went to TUSCANY Italy through TUSCAN WAY (www.tuscanway.com); It was a breath taking experience. So much great food, so much amazing wine, and memories I will remember forever.
