SUMMARY: Southwest Airlines is upset with San Antonio’s City Council for passing an operating agreement that jeopardizes its growth plans at San Antonio International Airport. Previously, Southwest was promised 10 gates in a future terminal, but the city reversed this decision, leaving them with only six gates instead of a possible 16. While this has led Southwest to question its future plans, the airport director remains optimistic, stating a willingness to collaborate and reach a reasonable agreement. Despite the dispute, Southwest emphasizes it will not abandon the airport and aims to find a solution.

An airline operating agreement and a series of terminal leases were approved Thursday by City Council, but Dallas-based Southwest Airlines said it is not in favor of the terms.
