Southwest Airlines is unveiling its first plane with a new, modern cabin this week, marking a significant milestone in the airline's transformation.

The updated aircraft interior features new extra legroom rows, larger overhead bins, and power outlets, providing a more modern on-board aesthetic.

The launch of this newest-generation Boeing 737 MAX 8 cabin is the latest chapter in the airline's wholesale transformation.

These changes have drawn criticism from customers, particularly the end to the "bags fly free" policy.
