“We have teams working to identify third parties who can provide vaccines to our employees as soon as they are able to do so, likely during later phases of the vaccine rollout plan,” the U.S. airline said in a statement.
The vaccines are paid for by the federal government and administrative expenses will be covered by Southwest employees under their health plans, the company added.
