All 3 Southwest Airlines personal credit cards now have elevated welcome bonuses of 85,000 points after spending $3000 in the first 3 months!
Non-affiliate links to the cards:
Southwest Rapid Rewards Plus Credit Card ($99 annual fee)
Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier Credit Card ($149 annual fee)
Southwest Rapid Rewards Priority Credit Card ($229 annual fee)
All 3 cards have benefits including:
- Free checked baggage for you and up o 8 travel companions on the same reservation
- 2X at gas stations and grocery stores
- 10,000 boost of Companion Pass points each year
- Group 5 boarding benefit
- No foreign transaction fees
The Premier and Priority Credit cards also offer tier-qualifying points and additional points earned on Southwest Airlines purchases as well as increased points earned on cardmember anniversary.
If you live near a Southwest Airlines airport hub, these points can be very valuable, especially if you qualify for the business version of this credit card and earn 135,000 points in a calendar year to earn a Southwest Companion Pass. Points never expire, and there are no blackout dates. If you need to cancel a flight, you can get all of your points refunded to your account with no extra fees.
Note: You can only own one Southwest personal credit card at a time, and you won’t qualify for a bonus if you’ve earned the bonus on any Southwest personal card in the past 24 months. Chase will not likely approve you if you’ve opened 5 or more personal credit cards in the past 24 months.
