À propos de cet audio
It's hard to make money running an airline - but Southwest was profitable every year for nearly five decades. How did it manage it? Business History hosts Jacob Goldstein and Robert Smith explore how a carrier with just four airplanes shuttling across Texas revolutionized flying by offering free whisky, cheap late-night tickets and free-for-all seating allocation.
Southwest developed a winning formula that forced its competitors to change how they did business - but then the Southwest model fell apart. Find out why.
