Southwest Announces Increase In Points Needed For CP



One of the best perks in the points/miles game is the Southwest Companion Pass. It's buy 1, get 1 FREE on any Southwest flight for two years. Wow! 
This morning, Southwest announced that starting Jan. 1, 2020, you will need to earn 125,000 points in a calendar year to earn the pass. That's an increase of 15,000 points from the current offer. 
Yes, that's a bummer, but with the increased offers on credit cards, it's still very doable. Plus there are other lots of other ways to earn Southwest points without flying. 
On the positive side, Southwest also announced that points will never expire starting in 2020. 
Watch for my post coming up about how to time your earning for the companion pass so that you get the pass for two years instead of just one.
