There's nothing that "long haul" about that flight. It's under 2000 miles. So actually it's a shorter flight than many domestic transcon flights, such as LAX-BWI which Southwest has flown (always with just ordinary snack and drink service).

It doesn't matter that Southwest flies internationally. As long as their fleet is made up of nothing more than 737s, Southwest can't do true "long haul" international flights (on which competition might force them to serve "meals").
