Original Note:
The $5.6 billion figure spent on stock buybacks came from a corporate watchdog stating Southwest spent this amount in the years leading up to the COVID pandemic. The spending is unrelated to the $7 billion in aid Southwest received in 2020. https://www.commondreams.org/news/southwest-airlines-shareholder-gifts
