why can’t southwest just show up on google flights?
I’ve been flying out of Oakland for years, and if you know the area, you know Southwest is king here. Every time I try to compare flight prices on Google Flights, I get all excited—until I remember Southwest never shows up. So there I am, juggling tabs, copying dates, and double-checking prices like I’m doing my taxes. It drives me nuts!
After one too many mornings hunched over my laptop, I finally snapped and spent two weeks building a Chrome extension that pulls Southwest flights and prices right into Google Flights. No more tab-hopping, no more guessing if I’m missing a deal. But honestly, why does Southwest make it so hard for us? I get wanting to keep things exclusive, but it just feels like extra work for no reason.
Has anyone else been annoyed by this? Or maybe you’ve found a better workaround? I can’t be the only one tired of playing hide-and-seek with flight prices. I’d love to hear if you’ve run into the same headache, especially if you fly out of Southwest-heavy airports like Oakland or Dallas. Let’s swap stories—maybe together we can finally get some answers.
