We decided to take a Southwest flight to Arizona, the first in the past two years snce the pandemic took hold in America. A few things had changed but not many.

One, and the most obvious, is the mask requirement. Honestly, we found it not to be that much of a nuisance. Masks off, of course, when eating or drink

Both of our flights were fully or nearly fully booked. No surprise there.

We also had heard that Southwest had reduced the legroom, but that did not be the case in either flight, both on 737-800s.

Our connection in Denver went fine.

In the past, we had often been given complimentary TSA PRE access, but that didn’t happen on this flight.

We had no problems with inflight violence, as has been widely reported. It just went smoothly.

All in all, I think we are back to traveling!
