Southwest cuts cabin service short to reduce risk of injuries, airline says
Briefly

Southwest Airlines has implemented a new policy requiring cabin preparation for landing to begin at an altitude of 18,000 feet, aimed at enhancing passenger safety. This change could shorten in-flight service times, affecting availability of food and drinks on shorter flights.
Due to the risk associated with in-flight turbulence, particularly following incidents where injuries occurred, the new procedure is designed to mitigate these risks. Passengers flying on shorter routes may find that drink service, including water, may no longer be available.
