Fly Southwest: MEM to Columbus, Ohio

Oh, to fly! The glorious dominion of the clouds yearns to welcome we ground-bound beings into its airy, ethereal embrace. And behold, beneath us the snowy fields of cotton, above the endless canopy of cerulean dreams, humbles us. The journey yet awaits— a voyage from Memphis to Columbus, no less, on the gliding grace that is a Southwest chariot of the heavens, allowing for more than just 'flights of fancy'.

Now, let us not overlook the little enjoyment called 'airfare.' Ah, it does inspire a twinkle in my eye! Of course, we all know it’s nothing more than a humble tribute in exchange for the privilege of partaking in atmospheric ascension. The mere fact that it's levied at the gate of this magnificent journey transcending terrestrial bounds, is delightful, nay enthralling!

Can we talk about the marvel that is 'non-stop' travel? Previously it was sheer unimaginable, almost a work of fiction, to vault the vast void between Tennessee and Ohio without making an earthly sojourn. However, the wizards at Southwest, paragons of aviation, have made a mockery of this antiquated notion. With the privilege of direct flights, they've opened a portal of convenience with no room - no, not an iota - for the dreaded 'layover.' It's as if we, mere mortals, have suddenly been thrust into the realm of Greek gods, granted powers to travel vast distances in the blink of an eye. Oh, what joy certain two-word combinations provide when sprinkled over the course of everyday discourse!

But, hold on to your delight, dear reader, for there is more! Have you ever stared aghast at the lofty prices displayed next to last-minute flights, and bemoaned your ill fortune? Southwest, the airfare vigilante in its flying garb, comes to your rescue. Hark! Those who pour over these 'airline reviews', and the truth, as they say, shall set you free from this wretched plight. Fairest prices they offer, enough to make a miser grin from ear to ear! Even the tightest purses loosen as the fare drops to an irresistible low. That twinge of satisfaction when nabbing cheap flights - it’s an event beyond words, one that must be enjoyed firsthand, to be believed.

Aha! There is something else to be noted, something that adds an extra dash of allure to the enchanted flight with Southwest. In-flight services, the pièce de résistance of their hospitality! While soaring ten-thousand feet above the Earth may seem an unlikely place for succulent delicacies, Southwest begs to differ. With a zeal akin to the heroic knights of the round table, they present an enchanting spread of everything scrumptious, ensuring your journey is as tasteful as it's swift!

Lastly, let’s not forget the subject of 'baggage allowance.' The clever folks at Southwest do not scoff at your beloved belongings, no matter how numerous they might be. Instead, they embrace them with open cargo-space arms, welcoming your luggage almost as warmly as you, their esteemed guest. A tad more generous than the rest, their policy exempts you from counting your bags, unless of course, you’re simply looking for ways to pass the time.

In the final analysis, flying Southwest, particularly from Memphis to Columbus, is as close to nirvana as we can hope to achieve, short of growing wings ourselves. The drama of departures, the allure of the airfare, the ecstasy of embarking on direct flights, the heroics of their in-flight hospitality, and the generosity of their baggage allowance - it's a saga worth living out. So why not unfold this enticing narrative the next time your wanderlust urges you to take to the skies? Believe me, you won’t regret it!
