Southwest Promotional Companion Pass
Southwest Airlines just announced a promotional companion pass offer. The companion pass is the option to take a friend with you on your flights for just the taxes and fees. Normally you would have to get 135,000 points or 100 flights in a year to earn the companion pass for the following year.
Here’s the deal
Register now, and then purchase one round trip or two one-way flights by 8/30. Then you have to travel by 9/30. Then your companion flies with you from 1/8-3/8/2024 for just the taxes and fees.
My Thoughts
On paper this sounds like a good deal if you travel regularly however it isn’t that great of an offer. Between January and February is a down season in travel so they are trying to entice you to fly a flight in the hope you book something in January. One way this makes sense for you is if you already have a trip to book or if you already have a trip booked by the end of September then you can just register for the flights and then rebook your flight and then you will be eligible to be qualified for the companion pass.
