CHICAGO (Reuters) - Southwest Airlines Co <LUV.N> said on Friday it has applied for U.S. payroll grants but cannot disclose details as the next several days could involve conversations on the terms of any agreement.

In a statement, Southwest said its goal is to evaluate all possible sources of capital that will help protect its employees and the company's "healthy footing," with payroll support one option under consideration.
