Oakland, CA to Phoenix, AZ to Dallas, TX Trip Report on Southwest Airlines

Here is the trip report going back to Dallas, TX from Oakland, CA on Southwest Airlines with a connection in Phoenix, AZ. Luckily I had time to walk around at the Oakland Airport and watch some planes. Everything went well too. My connection was not very long in Phoenix and really only had time to grab a bite to eat and walk for a little bit. We flew over the Yosemite Mountains and through Nevada and Northern Arizona from Oakland to Phoenix, which was nice. From Phoenix to Dallas, it was the typical route over I-10 East and I-20 East. I also want to point out that Oakland Airport no longer has prerecorded announcements, which was a con because I like hearing those. Here is the trip report. I hope you all enjoy.
