Southwest will take over these flights in 2014. “With our new international service provided by AirTran Airways, and the imminent growth of our airline, we knew translating southwest.com into Spanish was the smartest way to enhance our website,” says Kevin Krone, vice president of marketing, sales and distribution for Southwest. “This enhancement will provide customers who prefer Spanish the same level of customer service provided by our regular website,” Krone says.
