About Southwest Companion Pass
Southwest Airline’s Companion Pass is one of the most sought-after perks of any airline’s frequent flyer program. The pass typically requires either 100 qualifying one-way Southwest flights per year or accumulating 125,000 Rapid Rewards points in a calendar year – neither an easy feat to achieve.
The Companion Pass allows a companion to fly with a traveler for just the cost of taxes and fees. This exceptional perk means one friend or family member can fly with the cardholder for as little as $5.60 per flight.
