Southwest Airlines Debuts New Plane with Modern Cabin

Southwest Airlines is introducing a new-look plane, featuring brand-new seats and an updated cabin design, which will begin flying this week.

The updated aircraft interior includes new extra legroom rows, larger overhead bins, and power outlets, along with a more modern on-board aesthetic.

The launch of this newest-generation Boeing 737 MAX 8 cabin is a "major milestone" in the airline's transformation.

These changes have drawn criticism from customers, particularly the end to the "bags fly free" policy.
