*Southwest Airlines: Southwest has by far the largest passenger operation at SAN, with several arrivals and departures every hour.  Most of these flights are operated by the 737-300 and 737-700, in both new and older liveries.  The 737-500 is no longer seen very frequently in SAN.  Fortunately, because of the large number of Southwest aircraft cycling through San Diego, it is not uncommon to see one of the airline's famous special livery planes.
