• Southwest Airlines 737...
----------------------------------------------
Finally! This is the 3rd and final leg of my 1-day Southwest Airlines adventure from San Diego to San Francisco and back via Phoenix.
This time, it’s another ride aboard a 737-700 (registration N8654B). This one featured the old “baby **** brown” interior, which…I admit to liking. At least a little.
Total flying time was just under 1.5 hours, and I had seat 23A for the journey down the California coast.
The best part? This’ll be the last of my Southwest Airlines content for a while. You’re welcome!

Southwest loves to zooooommmmmmm on taxi. They are the only airline that doesn't follow the 30 knot taxi speed limit. lol

@kimberlyb7077 2 года назад

Southwest is definitely my go-to airline. They have this 737 MAX 8 that I really want to go on. It has the headrest that can close in on your head. But anyways, I flew Southwest to Nashville, Tennessee and Orlando, Florida and I'd say, it's amazing other than finding a row for 3 people because there's no seat assignments (which makes it difficult for families flying Southwest Airlines) so that's the only bad thing about Southwest which isn't that bad of an issue.

Definitely agree with the 1L takeoff. It's beautiful. The new terminal looks great too. Can't wait to see it. Though I won't spin in the chairs. Doesn't seem like a good idea while wearing a mask. Also, great commentary of the approach into KSAN. I did it once and it was so strangely beautiful flying over LA and not landing at LAX or LGB. We flew over LGB i remember.

@sanspotter 3 года назад

Haha, yeah, I learned my lesson on the spinny-chair thing. Of course, knowing me, I will have totally forgotten about it next time I’m there and I’ll end up doing the exact same thing. 🤦🏼‍♂️😄 Glad you enjoyed the narration of the approach!

About your question, they use 1L and 1R for domestic departures and 28L and 28R for international departures And yes, the SSTIK4 departure is wonderful

@sanspotter 3 года назад

Thanks Marcus - makes sense. I saw that the 28s were in use, but only by international carriers.

I think in general that is true but it also depends on route. I've taken off from 28's several times for domestic flights mainly across the country including Honolulu.

@Evan-ed7pu 3 года назад

there are no actual speed limits for taxiing, you just have to be at a safe speed to stop if an aircraft/living thing/object were to impede your path, it’s subjective. SW pilots are known to taxi fast because they’re not paid by the flight hour.

@peterhughes7099 3 года назад

As always Scott a nice video with interesting fun footage. However I do have a question for you. Out of curiosity do all arrivals into San Diego fly over Miramar, or is it just internal USA flights and not international flights? Yes I was one of the two who watched until the end! And I'll. At h you in the next one! Stay safe 👍

@sanspotter 3 года назад

Thanks for hanging on all the way to the end Peter! Only flights from the north (SFO, PDX, SEA, LAX, etc) fly directly over Miramar. All other arrivals come in over the desert from the east.

@JuanWayTrips 3 года назад

What I found fascinating is that you managed to get all 3 Southwest interiors in one day: 738 with the new Heart interior, 737 with the "updated" blue seats (I think they just painted the old seats blue), and the older 738s that haven't gotten the Heart interior seats (same seats as the 737). Is there a random RU-vid award for that kind of accomplishment? (That said, the Heart seats on the 738 are my favorites as that lit pocket up top can also serve as a pseudo-tablet holder.)

@sanspotter 3 года назад

Yeah Juan, I was thinking about that as well! I hadn’t considered the award though...but it’s a darn good idea I fully support. 🥇😂

In the US airlines do this to keep the planes cooler. Only the exit row seats must have window shades up for taxi/takeoff/landing.

@lrg3834 3 года назад

Hi Scott! Here's an idea for you. Since most, if not all, airlines in the U.S. use major hubs to manage their traffic volume, why not do hub reports in this time of limited international flights? This could jazz up your U.S. airline reports, plus I don't know anybody who's actually done something like this. Btw, SAN looks charming and inviting compared to SFO.

@sanspotter 3 года назад

Thanks man! Good idea! Only problem is that I’ve decided to stay grounded for the time being. I’m not worried about getting sick myself, but I just want to do what I can to avoid catching something and spreading it to others unknowingly. I’ll be back in the air eventually though!
