Remember when Southwest was the chill, no-nonsense airline with free bags and open seating? Not anymore. Experts say they’re now using sneaky “psychological tricks” just like other airlines—think hidden fees, upsells, and urgency tactics to squeeze more cash out of us. Even their famous loyalty program might get a not-so-sweet update. Basically, Southwest’s ‘transparent’ vibe is out, and the ‘dark patterns’ playbook is in. Guess we can’t trust any airline to keep it real these days! #Travel #SouthwestAirlines #TravelHacks
