About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Thursday, 14 December 2023
Among the “big four” airlines in the U.S., which each command over 15% of the domestic market – American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and Southwest Airlines – Southwest Airlines stands as the youngest.
Founded by Herb Kelleher and Rollin King in 1967, Southwest Airlines commenced operations in 1971. It started as an affordable airline within Texas. Over the years, Southwest has experienced substantial growth and is distinguished by its distinctive operational strategy. This strategy includes exclusively using Boeing 737 aircraft, targeting less busy secondary airports, and providing straightforward, efficient service without extra amenities. These practices have been instrumental in Southwest’s rise to becoming one of the top U.S. airlines in terms of the number of domestic passengers.

Final Jeopardy Video – Thursday, 14 December 2023
Watch all the videos from today’s Jeopardy episode below, including highlights, behind the scenes outtakes and full episodes.
Final Jeopardy is the final round of the popular American television game show Jeopardy!, in which participants test their knowledge in numerous areas by answering questions. In Final Jeopardy, participants are given a single clue and must wager a percentage of their existing earnings based on their confidence in their ability to successfully respond.
Each contestant surreptitiously writes down their wager during the commercial break. The Final Jeopardy clue is presented when the programme resumes, and participants have 30 seconds to write down their solution in the form of a question (e.g., “What is…?”). When the timer runs out, the host, reveals each contestant’s response and wager in ascending order of their pre-Final Jeopardy scores. The scores of contestants are adjusted based on whether their response is correct or incorrect, as well as the amount wagered. At the end of the round, the contestant with the highest score is proclaimed the winner.
