Southwest Airlines faced strong backlash online after sharing notices that urged passengers not to stand before the plane came to a complete halt. The airline held firm on the rule but faced a flood of complaints from flyers and consumer advocacy groups.
Meanwhile, another disturbance occurred in South Florida as a shooting in Miami-Dade County injured a victim in the area’s southwest section. In related news, payment firm Klarna revealed it would now let customers book Southwest flights through its U.S. travel service.
