, Southwest Airlines has scheduled flights to 97 destinations in 41 states, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, the newest being Liberia, CR on November 1, 2015. The airline has 15 focus cities and operates over 3,800 flights each day. ==Destinations== Southwest does not use the "hub and spoke" system of other major airlines, preferring the "point-to-point" system. It has large operations in certain airports. An average of 80 percent of Southwest passengers are local passengers— only 20 percent of all passengers are connecting passengers. This is higher than most airlines, where many passengers connect in hub cities. However, at Southwest's focus cities, the percentage of connecting passengers can reach 30 percent. Recent numbers indicate that the number of connecting passengers is steadily rising. As part of its effort to control costs, Southwest sometimes uses secondary airports in cities with high costs. Secondary airports have lower costs and may be more convenient to travelers than major airports. Some examples include: * Chicago, Illinois: Southwest uses Chicago Midway International Airport instead of O'Hare International Airport. * Dallas, Texas: Southwest uses Dallas Love Field instead of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. * Houston, Texas: Southwest uses William P. Hobby Airport instead of George Bush Intercontinental Airport. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Southwest Airlines destinations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
