CS&S is the Department at Southwest formerly known as Reservations. FlyerTalk is a blog about the travel and airline industry. These two come together on this episode of Red Belly Radio when David Holmes, a.k.a. the rapping Flight Attendant rapped on the telephone on-hold entertainment.

This episode of Red Belly Radio is about kids. Not just any kids, but some very special ones. Nationally syndicated, Dallas-based radio show, Kidd Kraddick in the Morning, raises funds every year to send between 40 and 50 families with special needs kids to the Disney parks in Orlando Florida. Southwest Airlines helps out in a number of ways:  hosting a phone bank; providing volunteers to take donations from Kidd Kraddick listeners; and, providing an aircraft and crew to fly these deserving families to Florida.

Southwest launches a recycling program. The photo is one side of a bale of aluminum cans worth $1000. This is a repeat or "recycled" episode.

Red Belly Radio Theater proudly presents radio as it used to be--or maybe never was.  Old time radio is the theme with this docudrama with a special appearance by Southwest CEO Gary Kelly whose part was recorded while addressing a group of reporters and online media folks at the unveiling of a four-year-old plane. In fact, there is even Cliff Hangar. Confused? Listen to Red Belly Radio to learn just what we mean by a "Green Plane."

This episode of Red Belly Radio was recorded at the Dallas Maintenance Center at our 7th annual, 2009 Southwest Airlines Pigskin Plane Pull—pulling one of our Boeing 737s with human power! I won't tell you who won here, but can tell you that a record time was set--for the worst time ever in this event.
