The Dallas-based low-cost carrier will serve free alcoholic drinks to customers age 21 and over on all Valentine’s Day flights, according to its winter beverage menu.
“Our heart is all yours,” the airline wrote on its menu. “So is this free drink. Enjoy one round on us Valentine’s Day.”
The airline, which has doled out free drinks to passengers flying on holidays such as Valentine’s Day and Halloween in the past, is no stranger to love. The airline calls itself the love airline and you’re probably familiar with its heart logo. It all began when the carrier’s first departing flights took off from Dallas Love Field Airport in 1971, according to the airline.
“Since Dallas was the carrier’s first departure city, and the airline had an innate heartfelt affection for its Customers, the love theme was quick to catch on,” wrote the airline in a press release. “Southwest immediately requested LUV as its New York Stock Exchange ticker symbol and forever changed the airline’s spelling of the word love.”
