New Offer! Earn 30k Points Plus A Companion Pass With Southwest Personal Cards

- Feb 7, 2023 Credit Card Offers0 comments

Chase released new offers on the 3 personal Southwest cards. Earn 30,000 points plus a Companion Pass (through 02/28/24) after spending $4,000 within the first 3 months.

It’s exciting that you can get a companion pass for free. However, with Southwest cancelling so many flights, the companion pass is worth only as much as the chance of your flight not being cancelled.

Southwest companion pass

The Southwest Companion Pass allows you to bring along a travel companion on your Southwest flight to travel for free (besides for fees and taxes which is often as low as $5.60).

Whenever you fly Southwest, your chosen companion can hop along for free for an unlimited amount of flights. Your flight can be booked using cash or even Rapid Rewards points.

Once you earn the welcome bonus companion pass, the pass is good through 02/28/2024.

You can read more about the great value of a Southwest Companion Pass here.

Welcome offer eligibility

Please note; you can only get approved for one Southwest personal card in 24 months. So you cannot apply for all three cards at the same time. Here are the exact welcome offer terms: “The product is not available to either (i) current Cardmembers of any Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Card, or (ii) previous Cardmembers of any Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Card who received a new Cardmember bonus within the last 24 months. This does not apply to Cardmembers of the Southwest Rapid Rewards Business Card and Employee Credit Card products”.

Southwest business cards are counted separately so you can get one Southwest personal plus a Southwest Business card or even get one Southwest personal plus both Southwest business cards.

Bypassing the Chase 5/24 rules

There are some data points that the Southwest personal cards are currently bypassing the Chase 5/24 rule. So even if you opened more than 5 personal cards in the last 24 months you can currently (possibly) get approved for a Southwest personal credit card.

Here are the full details and benefits of the 3 Southwest personal cards compared side by side.
