Southwest also states this on their commercials. Here are a few web sites where they talk about Southwest and other airlines choosing not to pay aggregator fees: * http://www.airfarewatchdog.com/blog/3800620/which-booking-sites-exclude-whic h-airlines/ * https://www.quora.com/Why-does-Southwest-choose-not-to-offer-their-fares-on- 3rd-party-flight-aggregators * http://www.cnet.com/news/southwest-soars-without-travel-sites/ I'm not sure why they're showing up on kayak.com now, but maybe things have changed and they're trying something new.
