Answer 1

Answer:

(D) Southwest Airlines views itself as operating in a devolving market.

Explanation:

If Southwest Airlines believes it is operating in a devolving or declining market it will not make efforts to generate customer information with a view to enhancing customer experience.

The actions of Southwest Airlines are consistent with a company in an evolving market where there are new opportunities to expand their customer base and grow returns on investment.
