Southwest cuts some Providence-Philly flights

PHILADELPHIA -- Southwest Airlines is trimming service between Providence and Philadelphia as part of a broader move to cut some routes nationwide.

Southwest plans to trim service between Providence and Philadelphia from six to five daily round-trips.

Also, Southwest will stop flying direct flights from Philadelphia to California this fall, at least temporarily.

Nationally, the airline plans to cut 39 round-trips and add 45.

The discount carrier is wrestling with high fuel costs and a slow economy.
