Quick Thoughts

Earning 10x Rapid Rewards points on up to $500 of spend with Southwest isn’t a huge spending limit, but it’s a decent return that could net you up to 5,000 points.

What makes this offer even more appealing is that the bonus points are Companion Pass-qualifying points. That, combined with the WOWZERS sale that’s giving up to 50% off base fares, makes for a decent stack. If you’re a frequent Southwest passenger but who doesn’t need to book any travel right now, you could always buy $500 worth of Southwest gift cards to lock in the 10x earnings and redeem those gift cards in the future seeing as gift card purchases are specifically listed as being eligible.
