Southwest Airlines has announced a limited-time opportunity for travelers to earn its coveted Companion Pass with minimal effort. Typically, obtaining this pass requires significant flying or credit card spending. However, until Thursday, travelers can earn a two-month promotional Companion Pass by booking just one round-trip flight.

To participate, individuals must register and purchase either a round-trip or two one-way flights by February 20, with travel completed by March 31. This promotion allows the use of Southwest Rapid Rewards points in addition to cash for booking eligible flights.

"Pay with cash, points, or Cash + Points," according to the promotion terms and conditions. It is noted that "Cash + Points isn't usually the best route for booking Southwest flights."

The Companion Pass permits holders to bring a guest on unlimited flights at no additional cost beyond taxes and fees. The promotional pass will be valid from August 7 to October 8.

Additionally, Southwest offers another method for earning the Companion Pass through credit card promotions. By signing up for one of three specific Southwest Rapid Rewards Credit Cards and meeting spending requirements, customers can secure a pass valid through February 28, 2026.

The airline allows passengers some flexibility regarding their designated companion; changes can be made up to three times per year.

This opportunity provides an alternative means for those interested in acquiring a Companion Pass without extensive travel commitments.
