Southwest is not a budget carrier -- they were never that cheap. But I would pay a premium not to fly Southwest. If there was Delta flight that was a $100 more

But I would pay a premium not to fly Southwest. If there was Delta flight that was a $100 more than an equivalent Southwest flight, I would take the Delta flight.
That's what OP meant by paying a premium.
- bigstrat2003 3y agoBut that's the point - Delta (and others) aren't that much more. So people aren't paying a premium to avoid Southwest, because there isn't a premium to be paid.
- wenc 3y agoIt’s a hypothetical premium. Fares for the same route can differ between carriers depending on airport, time of travel etc. even among mainstream carriers. I would pay more not to fly Southwest.
