Fly Southwest: PIT to Columbus, Ohio

Whoosh! There you go, your one-way ticket to a belly full of laughter and maybe, just maybe, a round-trip ticket to Columbus from the city of bridges, Pittsburgh. Yes, we're talking about Southwest airline and yes, we're about to take you on a journey filled with wit, information, and some weirdly intriguing facts about flights!

Travelers, on your mark, set, and pack your bags, because we are traversing to Columbus on Southwest, and boy will it be an adventure. Southwest, synonymous with affordability and high-flying amicability, lays out the red carpet for their customers be it during a layover or on a non-stop flight. They've ranked consistently high in airline reviews, so we're not just spewing hot air here. We heard the peanuts are pretty great too.

With the plethora of flights leaving from Pittsburgh to Columbus, the fun begins. Among those is the mystical red-eye flight, which despite its scary name, simply means a flight that leaves late at night and arrives early morning, designed specifically for night owls or vampires (we're not here to judge). If you're lucky, you might even spot a bat on the flight – a baseball bat that is, because we keep the actual bats in the cargo hold. On a serious note, you can always bank on Southwest's sturdy baggage allowance. They've got you covered, be it golf clubs or grandma's casserole.

For those lovers of daylight, daytime flights are also available; and guess what? Southwest's in-flight services even include a buffet of clouds for your eyes. You get to see fluffy cloud nachos or even a cumulus burger with a side of condensation trail. Yum! Remember to hydrate though, cloud-watching could get 'thirsty' work.

All humor aside, if you're on a business trip and thinking of enjoying the first-class services, unfortunately, Southwest only offers economy class seats. The great news though is their frequent flyer program, Rapid Rewards. It's like an all-you-can-fly buffet, except you pay (you did expect that, right?). The more you fly, the more points you rack up, getting you next to nothing airfare next time. If that's not a flight deal, then I'm a run-of-the-mill armadillo.

Now, you might be wondering about the best time to book your flight. So, here's a pro tip: booking your flight on a Tuesday at 3 pm is supposedly the best time. Don't ask us why, it’s just one of those wise tales. Although, if you manage to book at this precise time and turn into a majestic winged creature, do let us know. We'd love to interview a human/bird hybrid.

Last but not least, let's remember that all flights are subject to the flight cancellation policy. But don't sweat it, Southwest is very generous – they let you cancel up to 10 minutes before takeoff. So, if you're stuck in traffic listening to the world's longest rendition of 'Sweet Home Alabama' and realize you won't make it, you're covered!

Well, that's it folks. Your guide to Southwest Airline with a sprinkle of humor. Now, get out there and conquer the world, or at least, get to Columbus. Bon Voyage!
