Southwest Rapid Rewards Overview

Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards is a unique loyalty program that shares some characteristics common of airline loyalty programs (like priority check-in and boarding for elite members) and additional key features (like the ability to bring a companion for free when you’ve earned enough points in a calendar year and points that never expire). This guide is designed to include everything you need to know about the Southwest Rapid Rewards program.
