Gary Kelly's son is a Flight Attendant

I met Gary Kelly's son last week. He was working an intra-California flight. I introduced myself after the flight. Nice fellow.

Has anyone else here met him?

edited to add:

This was a nice side benefit of my first VDB in a year or so. $160 for a 40-minute delay.

A hospital? What is it?

It's a big white building with Doctor's in it, but that's not important right now.

Well, the WN Spin Doctors are at it again, quote from the above page, bolding mine. Southwest is acting more and more like a legacy carrier every day.

Gary Kelly serves as the Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer at Southwest Airlines. A 23-year Southwest veteran who became CFO in 1989, Gary has worked closely with Southwest’s legendary Cofounder and Chairman Emeritus Herb Kelleher and President Emeritus Colleen Barrett to build the nation’s largest airline in terms of passengers—and the undisputed Low-Fare Leader.
