TL;DR

Southwest Airlines will begin ending cabin service earlier on flights starting December 4 to reduce the risk of turbulence-related injuries. Flight attendants will prepare the cabin for landing at 18,000 feet instead of 10,000 feet, requiring passengers to complete pre-landing procedures sooner. This change aims to enhance safety, as turbulence accounts for a significant portion of in-flight injuries. Additionally, Southwest plans to end its open seating policy next year.
