Southwest 75,000 point bonus offer is ending on February 10th so if you have been thinking about this one, you better jump on it now.
Why would you want to jump on this offer?
Southwest Airlines is one of the best airlines out there with an easy cancellation and change policy, relatively inexpensive flights, two FREE checked bags and more. It's one of my favorite airlines.
And Southwest offers one of the best perks in the business, the companion pass. The pass is good for FREE travel for your companion for two years. You can read more about the companion pass here. The 75,000 point bonus offer puts you very close to the 125,000 points needed to earn the companion pass.
There are three credit cards that currently offer the 75,000 bonus offer. Which one is right for you?
You have three choices on personal cards. The differences between the Plus, Premier and Priority are:
- $69 annual fee
- 3,000 anniversary bonus
- $99 annual fee
- 6,000 anniversary bonus
- $149 annual fee
- $75 Southwest credit
- 4 upgraded boardings
- 7,500 anniversary bonus
I believe the Priority card is the best value because though the annual fee is higher, you also get a credit on Southwest. If you apply for one of these personal cards, you will earn 75,000 bonus points plus 5,000 points for your purchases. So you are looking at 80,000 points with one card.
You need 125,000 points to earn the companion pass. You are only allowed to hold one personal card at a time. But you can hold a personal card and a business card at the same time.
