I know this is a hot take but companies have to figure out if modernization of a UI will be worth it to retrain everyone in the new UI. Many people were involved with its creation and maintenance and due to its age the UI may have a large amount of glue code that can't be separated unless you build an API around the other software. Especially if there is some kind of change in the system that moving off the old one is meaningless. Southwest is also making changes to their operations so they probably might be in maintenance mode for the software especially when the outage of their current software was done since they will have to not have anyone choose any seat at this time.

- stavros 2y agoI don't know, I like the classic Windows UI. I don't think modern UIs are an improvement on that.
- suzzer99 2y agoNo no no. We must now have floating headers that don't give any indication they belong to the columns below them, much less that you can click them to sort the columns. 95% of possible actions must only appear when hovered over. Buttons should not look like buttons, nor should they provide any feedback that they've actually been clicked. Etc.
