Well, I'm a loyal Southwest Airlines customer, and I think this video is hilarious, too. Actually I'm still waiting to feel like part of a cattle call while waiting to board my favorite airline. That would be fun! :-)

LMAO!!!!!!! still love southwest airlines though!!!

Hahaha, god, this is so true. I was pissed when I saw that Southwest commercial, it's so obvious it was an AirTran jet. It's about time somebody stands up to the airline of flying cattle cars! Gotta love marketing wars tho.

Wow, loved how they hardly tried to hide the SWA Airplane Logo in the departure lounge... Let the mudslinging begin.

touche, airtran, touche...

I have flown both and had a fine experience.

Southwest is great but I did like the video and the idea behind it! LOL..... Funny but I'll be back to flying SWA like always!

Check out the middle finger on the male passenger. I'm pretty sure that's directed at SWA.

Like it or not, "Skip the Stampede" is the real Southwest Biography!!!!!!!!

Hey ImagineriaMexico, As the video's writer, producer, director and voice over artist (and I use the latter term loosely), your comment, while correct, stings me just a bit. But look at it this way, by saving money on expensive voice over talent, AirTran gave you a great video and can continue to keep ticket prices lower than its competitors.

Awesome!!!

I think this is a funny response to the SWA commercial. With fares you can get for like $79, even with a $15 bag fee flying on AirTran is still cheaper than SWA. They claim fares starting at $120. Even if you check a bag its $26 more to fly on SWA.

Pllllllzzzzz air this! hahahaha

I used to fly United and was long time Premier Exec. Not now. Happily I don't fly much anymore andt when I do it's usually Southwest. Almost always on time or ahead, best prices, free luggage, and if you know the system, you rarely have to settle for a middle seat.

this is awesome

Never flown Southwest and probably never will

HAHAHA!!!! BETTER THAN SWA!

I laughed, please air this.

south west made fun of airtran so airtran got them back the fight is on go airtran!!

@marcymahem2012 why does this matter? South west charges more for a ticket, so the bag fee is there already whether you check a bag or not. The SWA fares start at 120. AirTran starts at $79, and a bag only costs $15 for the first bag ($25 for the second). Let bm do some math for you: if you cary on, you save $41, if you check one bag, you save $26. And, it's still $1 cheaper if you check 2 bags.

This summer will be veryn funny

if only airtran would stop charging for checked baggage....

Funny, but Southwest wins in my opinion. Can't wait for the next round.

@JamesCameron1 A commercial that exaggerates for comedic effect? Say it isn't so!

LOL: "You are 'udderly' slow!" (0:19). I can relate because I used to work as an Ops Agent for SWA----never again! I used to get all the whiners who wanted to preboard and when it was time for general boarding, everyone tried to stampede all at once. It's a matter of preference I suppose. Personally, I avoid SWA now and take Virgin America or Jetblue instead.

I am going to admit this is funny! however, i don't agree that each Air Line should make fun of another to prove a point. I do say what Southwest did was wrong but i can't say that Air Tran is right either. Thus this leaves only one message which is both Air Lines are not so professionals after all if they are attacking each other like children.

Anyone that has flown SW knows it isn't like that. SW is by far the most enjoyable airline to fly. Airtran is aaaaawful

Not everyone acts like that on SWA flights.... infact I have never seen any pushing and shoving on ANY of the 100+ SWA flights I've been on. In my opinion this commercial is funny... but not accurate at all.

I could pay 15 bucks to check a bag and pay $50 less for my ticket and be treated well and fly on a nice new plus 717...or i could pay 50 bucks more, check my bag for "free", and then stampede to get on a crappy old 737. Hmm. Less dough for better service...it's pretty easy, really.

Southwest is better. :D

right idea, but the acting's terrible...
