Free beer! For business-types

Travel

Don't rush to the gate if you're flying Southwest and hope to nab a good seat. Starting today, the airline is no longer offering its first-come, first-served approach to boarding. Instead, business travelers will get first dibs, because they pay the highest fares. Increased competition is leading to the new focus on business types. Southwest will also include some other perks: additional frequent-flier credits and a free beer, or other alcoholic beverage.
