Last week, Southwest Airlines expanded Sip and Ship™ to four Texas airports: Dallas Love Field, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, William P. Hobby Airport, and San Antonio International Airport. The expansion follows the program’s launch earlier this year at 19 select West Coast airports, where Customers can check a case of wine free of charge. After hearing from Texas wine lovers and growers who wanted the same offering in the Lone Star State, Southwest delivered. 

So how does it work? Customers 21 years of age or older can check one case of wine at no additional charge. Bring one properly packaged case of wine—up to 12 bottles, weighing 50lbs or less and falling within our standard sizing limit (62″ or less) to the Southwest ticket counter. As long as the package meets requirements, you can check it for free!

Southwest celebrated Sip and Ship’s Texas debut this past weekend at the Austin Food & Wine Festival, where Employees connected with festivalgoers and shared more about the program.
