Dec 06, 2020 · The brainstrust decided that because Northwest Airlines was “NW” and they were, y’know, Southwest, they’d simply flip “NW” around and become “WN.”. Yeah! That’ll show that hoity-toity Northwest Orient! . Given Southwest’s (well-earned) whimsical and quirky reputation, all of these explanations somehow make sense to me.
