Participants in Southwest Airlines’ search for additional agency support will be working on ideas for a national fall ad campaign even as the company’s longtime shop GSD&M develops creative strategy for that same initiative.

She explained the timing of the search by noting the expansion underway at the Dallas-based airline.
