Southwest Airlines unveils 'Missouri One' jet at KCI
April 16, 2015
(KANSAS CITY, Mo., AP) — Southwest Airlines has unveiled a Boeing 737 jet that is painted as though it’s wrapped in the Missouri state flag.
Southwest Chairman and CEO Gary Kelly says the airline wants to show its appreciation. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon and Kansas City Mayor Sly James were on hand for the presentation, and the group christened the repainted plane “Missouri One.”
Southwest makes 68 daily departures from the Kansas City International Airport, and there is talk of a massive overhaul of the facility. Kelly says any improvements should focus on cost.
