Ryanair vs. Southwest (The original)

Ryanair execs often compare Ryanair to being the European version of Southwest Airlines, but are they really? I would claim Easyjet is closer to being what Ryanair claim to be.

Some statements from Soutwest.

In May 1988, we were the first airline to win the coveted Triple Crown for a month - Best On-time Record, Best Baggage Handling, and Fewest Customer Complaints. Since then we've won it more than thirty times, as well as five annual Triple Crowns for 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996, and no other airline has contributed more to the advancement of the commercial airline industry than Southwest Airlines.

We are committed to provide our Employees a stable work environment with equal opportunity for learning and personal growth. Creativity and innovation are encouraged for improving the effectiveness of Southwest Airlines. Above all, Employees will be provided the same concern, respect, and caring attitude within the organization that they are expected to share externally with every Southwest Customer.

And that is like easyJet, how? SWA have about 4000 pilots and lose around 1 a year, so that's not like easyJet who loses that many most days!
