Southwest Airlines' annual report for 1999 highlights the company's continued growth and profitability. In 1999, Southwest carried over 57.5 million customers to 56 airports across the United States. While earnings increased 9.4% over 1998, fuel costs rose significantly in the second half of the year. Looking ahead, Southwest plans to increase capacity over 12% and open at least one new city in 2000 to offset potential impacts from high fuel prices. The report emphasizes Southwest's ongoing success in providing affordable air travel to more Americans.
