Now Southwest passengers at Dallas Love Field, Chicago Midway, Atlanta, Denver, Tampa Bay, and Saint Louis airports have a new way to pass the time between getting through the security line and waiting to board. Southwest Airlines spokesman Dan Landson said, "These are some of the busiest places for holiday travelers and we want to make sure they are having fun while at the airport." Not just fun, but free fun! The lounges are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and are free to use. Each lounge has several kiosks which feature games like Super Mario 3-D World and other new and popular games. Each kiosk can hold up to four gamers. At each lounge there are attendants on site to assist gamers and answer questions. Another bonus is that there is no time limit for game players at the lounges, but passengers ought to be mindful of the time so they don't miss their flight because they were distracted by the games.
These lounges were installed just before the Thanksgiving travel weekend and will stay at the six airports until December 22nd. On November 26th, more than 100 passengers on Southwest Airlines Flight 1883 from New Orleans to Dallas received a Wii U console as a gift to kick off the promotional period. Southwest is offering a sweepstakes that will end on Christmas Day. The sweepstakes will award 30 prizes, each consisting of two round-trip tickets on Southwest Airlines and one Wii U Deluxe Gaming System. The idea for a gaming lounge is not new, numerous airports worldwide offer year-round gaming options.
