Southwest Airlines Fills Cabin With Pets Orphaned During Houston Storm In Dramatic Rescue

We are at Tampa Int'l Airport in the Southwest terminal and there are an unbelievable number of pets everywhere. I think I heard the checkin people say they are waiving the pet fees. Leaving ahead of Irma due to hit Florida by Sunday. Cheers to Southwest Airlines.

Hey Folks, Southwest Airlines are always doing great things and caring. Other Airlines take note

This flight would be more tolerable than one filled with humans

Love all the people involved with this!

Southwest is awesome!

There is usually a lot of love when pets are involved unless there is a horrible/abusive person involved. Just look at the faces of the people cuddling and petting the animals for a moment during these horrible storms they are smiling. Animals reduce stress.... No doubt!!!

...Awww! *sniff

Thank you!

This is just one more reason why I love Southwest Airlines. Won't fly any other airline unless I have no other choice. Keep up the good work and good will SW.

is there goin to be a post or info where furrbaby families may look to see if theirs is at the LA shelter?

So friggin awesome.

Saint Francis would be smiling!! Sometimes angels come with wings with jet engines on them... Prayer by Saint Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals ....for our Animal Friends 🐕 🐾❤🐾 Heavenly Father, our human ties with our friends of other species is wonderful and special gift from You. We now ask You to grant our special animal companions your Fatherly care and healing power to take away any suffering they have. Give us, their human friends, new understanding of our responsibilities to these creatures of Yours. They have trust in us as we have in You; our souls and theirs are on this earth together to give one another friendship, affection, and caring. Take our heartfelt prayers and fill Your ill or suffering animals with healing Light and strength to overcome whatever weakness of body they have. Amen

i hope they also helped the poor people that couldnt afford the high prices

I always knew Southwest Airlines has a heart. It's in their logo.

This is just another reason that we love Southwest Airlines.

C'mon United! Here's redemption waiting to be had!

this is too too cute

This is why, given a choice I ALWAYS fly Southwest Airlines, they are LITERALLY putting the passenger's needs ahead of everything else

I cry every time I see photos of pets trying to survive in a hurricane. GOOD JOB SOUTHWEST, YOUVE MADE ME AND OTHER ANIMAL LOVERS PROUD TO BE HUMAN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER

Wonderful thing to do, we need more people like this in the world.

...MY HEART IS MELTING... New respect for Southwest Airlines from me <3

As sad and incredibly devastating these natural disasters are, they really tend to bring out the humanity in people. Too bad people aren't this nice all the time.

Heroes!

AWWWWWWEWWWWW
