Yesterday I flew from FLL-BWI on a Southwest 737-700 (N7834A)
After a 1 hour delay we finally begin to pushback. I experienced my first gate change from B9 all the way to A4. Some flight attendants were clearly frustrated walking over there
Lined up and waiting, runway 28R.
Rotate, now these next few minutes was really rough, we climed through a cloud and then suddenly descended through it, I’ve never experienced altitude loss after takeoff.
More beautiful photos, still the flight was shaky and the seatbelt sign didn’t come off at all. Beverage service was still completed though. The flight attendant seemed new and confused some drink orders.
Descending into BWI runway 10, some harsh turns

Arrival at gate C9, I don’t understand why I always arrive into terminal C.
The flight was actually not the best. Ft Lauderdale airport is now on the list of my worst airports, they had changes every SWA flights gate, some multiple times. After boarding, we sat and sat until the captain said “We’re waiting on some bags that apparently were forgotten”. We sat for 45 minutes. At that point people started becoming worried about their connections, Hartford and Louisville respectively. The FA said they should be fine and suggested they stay on board. After takeoff and the altitude loss after takeoff a woman two rows behind me screamed. This was the first time I’ve been on a flight with anyone other than a baby who screamed. The rest of the flight was just very turbulent.
Service: 7/10
In flight entertainment: 5/10
Overall: 6/10
Not my best flight but certainly one I won’t forget for a long while
