Yes just did it. Got a 99 roundtrip flight to ATL from BWI and taking it in early May. I saw this and got right on it. Promotional companion passes are great.

I got the companion pass promotion last fall. I booked a trip to Mexico with my bf. The best way to book the companion pass is by paying the “anytime” flight ticket. Once your companion pass is available, you call southwest and asked them nicely, keyword nicely, to replace your second anytime ticket for the companion pass. The anytime ticket is fully refundable and you only pay for the flight taxes. I know it’s a lot of money up front and hassle but this is the best way to reserved a seat for your companion. I hope this helps to anyone. Happy flying. ❤

Companion Pass is not capacity controlled. You could just book your own ticket now, then add the companion once you received the pass.

@@Love2Cruise I think it is because there has to be seats available to book for your companion. If my Mexico flight were to be full before my companion pass was available, my companion wouldn’t be flying with me due to the flight being full. Therefore, I paid and reserved that ticket and got reimbursed since I got the anytime ticket.

Will you be able to apply the companion pass right away after naming the companion ? For example if you fly out on Aug 16th? Does it take time to process that companion pass before you can use it? Thank you!

Hi Max, So I know it has to be cash paid. But Does using Southwest travel fund count? I have those from previous cancelled flights.....

I’ll also like to add that when booking two one-way flights they must be done by the same person. I’m a travel newbie and tried earning the companion pass last year and was very disappointed because the terms never listed that it had to be booked by the same person and didn’t qualify for it.

Thanks for pointing that out! Yes the two flights need to be completed by the same person that's earning the Southwest Companion Pass!

Omg I wish I saw this comment 10 min ago, they should specify that to their terms and conditions 😭 I messed up by cancelling a flight and rebooked for $12 more to try to get this companion pass for me and bf and bc it didn’t say anything about it being the same person in the terms I assumed any 2 one way tickets would be fine 🥲

Two questions: 1. Can you change the companion during the month and half? 2. I assume gift cards are the same as "cash" for the purposes of this promotion?

💯Agree! Once people realize how EASY it is to use Southwest Companion Pass, they want it. These promotional companion pass offers are a good way to test drive Companion Pass and then see if it's worth it to earn Companion Pass the traditional two credit card method 😄
