Given that there are usually few, if any, alternative providers on the west coast routes other than perhaps Southwest that provide a comparable solution to the typical core need -- getting from here to there as simply and quickly as possible and at the lowest possible price -- neither airline needs worry about the soft goods. Southwest has no lounges.

They are technically a partner at this point. August 2, 2016
OK, I admit, the partnership is healthy and strong and not likely to end. Ever, apparently, if they can make it through the bumps of the past three years...

Well, the moment has arrived (or at least been announced).
The winner of this friendly little contest: Air Houston (prediction 9/30/2016)
Your case of absolutely nothing will be shipped to you shortly!
Honorable mention:
javabytes - Predicted May 1, but no year
OP - Predicted May 1. 2014... missed it by 3 years
