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. This change aims to enhance safety for both crew and passengers, as turbulence has been a significant cause of in-flight injuries. Additionally, Southwest plans to end its open seating policy next year.
