This is Southwest Airlines “Nevada One”
Credits: Southwest Liveries
Background on Southwest Nevada One:
_Southwest’s first 737-700 special livery, “Nevada One” was introduced on June 2, 1999. In Nevada, Southwest serves Las Vegas and Reno.“Noting that flights to Las Vegas continue to yield the lowest profits in the United States, Kelleher said volume is how Southwest will compensate for lower revenue per seat”, which is why the company was able to bring the livery to their fleet.
- The registration for Nevada One is (N727SW)
History Of Nevada One:
The design of the livery includes a silver star, the state flower yellow sagebrush, and the “Battle Born” banner referring to Nevada’s birth as a state during the Civil War in 1864. The unveiling party started in Reno where Herb and Lieutenant Governor Lorraine Hunt unveiled the new 737-700 to a Wild West-themed party and then continued on to Las Vegas to a Big Band-themed party complete with swing-dancing Employees. In 1999, Las Vegas was our third largest station in terms of departures, making it fitting to show our appreciation to our Nevada Customers with a specialty plane. The date that the plane dates back to is tremendously historical once again

Why you should vote for the livery:
-
The aircraft has a significant background. Not only has it been to over 20 destinations, Unlike some previous Southwest liveries, Nevada One has been in service since 1999 and has continued to spark attention. I have seen the aircraft before once 2 years ago. It had arrived from a short flight from Sacramento. The livery continues to bright up the night and the livery has a lot of history. This would make a good edition to the fleet of Southwest as the Flagship does not service to one hub.
