Sorry if I’m thick…

The pilot said Southwest.. I didn’t know they had any 787… I thought they only had 737s..???

Ah. Yep. A 737..

A quick lookup of the planes identifier SW3695 does indicate it is registered to a Boeing 737-800 (twin-jet) (B738).

I was about to say that 787s have electronically dimming windows, not the "slider blinds", so it couldn't possibly be a 787.
But also what you said.
