Just pitch perfect. I suspect people that dislike it because the baggage handlers are weird need to have jokes explained to them on a regular basis.</p> <p>Something is happening but you don't know what it is, do you, Mr Jones?</p> That commercial is hilarious.

Something is happening but you don’t know what it is, do you, Mr Jones?

I wondered if any of the Southwest employees were used. If not, they did a great job, but would be so cool if they did use their employees.</p> I love this commercial!

People actually get caught up in thinking that the employees in the commercials are "acting naturally". Do people honestly think that baggage handlers anywhere actually tear up when the bags leave the terminal?!?</p> <p>It's a brilliant marketing campaign and the commercials are brilliantly shot, edited and scored - the music is great for the effect of the different spots. People who think the ads are "weird" are missing the point.</p> I can’t get over how many people miss the HUMOR of these ads.

It’s a brilliant marketing campaign and the commercials are brilliantly shot, edited and scored – the music is great for the effect of the different spots. People who think the ads are “weird” are missing the point.

On one instance, one goes as far as to get teary eyed as she sees the plane leave. In the same commercial they rewind and play the segment over and over and it becomes rather annoying listening to it again and again. It also adds to the annoying factor when they play the same commercial 5 times an hour. If anything this would deter customers away, because some may be turned off with this rather irritating method of marketing. So while the idea may have been good, they probably should find a better way of expressing themselves(Southwest Airlines).</p> Too bad the commercials are overly done as it shows these so called bag handlers exhibit rather weird behavior.
