The Fine Print

- Valid on new qualifying revenue flights booked between 8:00 a.m. CDT on August 28, 2023 and 11:59 p.m. CDT on August 30, 2023 for travel during the Promotion Period and flown within the Promotion Period.
- Member’s qualifying flight must be booked through Southwest Airlines® between 8:00 a.m. CDT on August 28, 2023 and 11:59 p.m. CDT on August 30, 2023 for travel that must be completed during the Promotion Period.
- Member’s Rapid Rewards account number must be entered at the time of booking Member’s qualifying flight to earn a Promotional Companion Pass valid for use between January 8, 2024 and March 8, 2024.
- A qualifying one-way flight for this promotion is a one-way revenue flight on Southwest Airlines from an origin city to a destination city, including any intermediate stops and/or connections on Southwest Airlines. A qualifying round trip flight for this promotion is a round trip revenue flight on Southwest Airlines from an origin city to a destination city and back to the originating airport or carrier-recognized co-terminal.
- Valid on new reservations booked within the Promotion Period only. Travel booked or flown prior to registration for this promotion is not eligible for this Promotional Companion Pass offer.
- Companion Pass, charter flights, reward and group travel, and Southwest Vacations® packages do not qualify as one-way or round trip revenue flights for this promotion.
- Changes made to any itinerary after purchase of a one-way or round trip revenue flight may eliminate qualification for this promotion.
- The Promotional Companion Pass is valid from January 8, 2024 and March 8, 2024 and allows you to designate one person to fly with you, free of airline charges (does not include taxes and fees from $5.60 one-way) on flights purchased by you, from January 8, 2024 and March 8, 2024, booked through Southwest, and completed between January 8, 2024 and March 8, 2024.
- No Rapid Rewards points or tier or Companion Pass qualifying points will be awarded for flights taken by the Companion when flying on a Promotional Companion Pass or Companion Pass reservation.
- You may change your designated Companion up to three times while you have Promotional Companion Pass.
- If you earn Companion Pass in 2023 by earning 135,000 Companion Pass qualifying points or flying 100 qualifying flights, any changes to your designated Companion during the time you have a Promotional Companion Pass will reduce the number of changes you can make to your designated Companion in the 2024 calendar year. For example, if you earn a Promotional Companion Pass through this promotion, change your designated Companion twice during the validity period for Promotional Companion Pass, and later in 2024 earn Companion Pass, you would only be able to change your designated Companion one more time in 2024.
- Companion Pass is non-transferable. All Rapid Rewards rules and regulations apply and can be found at Southwest.com/rrterms. Southwest reserves the right to amend, suspend, or change the Rapid Rewards program and/or Rapid Rewards program rules at any time without notice. Rapid Rewards Members do not acquire property rights in accrued points. The number of points needed for a particular Southwest flight is set by Southwest and will vary depending on destination, time, day of travel, demand, fare type, point redemption rate, and other factors, and is subject to change at any time until the booking is confirmed.
Our Verdict
Requirements are easy to meet, but the companion pass isn’t good for that long unfortunately.
