from the MAXjet website:
Connecting from MAXjet to Other Airlines at Washington Dulles Airport
Step One: Clear Customs.
Step Two: Go Upstairs.
Step Three: Locate Your Connecting Flight's Check-In Area, Check-In.
Step Four: Clear Security.
Step Five: Transit To Your Concourse.
Connecting from Other Airlines to MAXjet at Washington Dulles Airport

looks like they are simply promoting the ABILITY to connect to WN at IAD...

It could be the beginning of a cooperative marketing initiative...
The agreement between SWA and Maxjet is termed a "linkage agreement" whereby SWA allows Maxjet to post the link to the Southwest reservation site on the Maxjet website (www.maxjet.com). This is not a codeshare or marketing agreement and the Company is investing no funds or assets to support this linkage agreement. The Company's stated goal is to capture passengers from Maxjet who wish to travel inside the United States after their arrival at IAD. The Maxjet site clearly states that they offer no interline agreements, joint fare arrangements or official alliances with other carriers and their customers will have to purchase two tickets to travel beyond IAD.

I would say in the same concept as gas stations on all 4 corners of an intersection. Everybody is successful!!!

I would have to refer to ATA anouncement last week of record breaking load factors for the month of July 06 due the code share with WN. I guess Max Jet would be thinking the sky is the limit. (no pun intended)

I agree with you there. It would be quite an odd mix :blink:
Really , come on now! SWA and MAXjet... i can't stop laughing. Full service meets no service. Why are SW employees always trying to make u believe they are a real airline. Its so laughable... LOLOL... I had the most unfortunate experience to HAVE to fly on them last year. What a mess...never EVER again. Jetblue does circles around them...Always puzzled me WHY ANYBODy would ever fly SW.. Yikes !!!!

I guess because gas is so darn expensive that guys like me here in "flyover country" aren't willing to drive to New YOrk to catch a JetBlue flight to Florida. Did not not having an assigned seat scar you for life? Quite honestly, I don't see how blue 'tater chips and TV sets makes for "fuller service".

oh here we go!!! US/HP has a profitable quarter and there over confidence turns into trash talking. You all have choices when you fly and it just so happens we are the peoples choice. We didn't get that way because of no service. :down:
I guess RyanAir has that same reputation for "premium service"...
