What’s a good month to apply for the 1st card is Nov good

[jerryadame]

You mentioned you can apply for the business cqard if you drive Uber. How do you do that in the application? Do you know the path to follow?

[jimmyjames]

Dang - that's a really good tip on how to maximize the companion fare! Thanks so much for the info + video!

[stefanimyhre]

Do you have to have 135k pts banked to earn the pass? Or does the SW system keep a cumulative tally of pts earned even if you've chosen to use some on a flight? I am guessing these need to be untouched to get the pass, then can spend.

Do you have to earn the points within 1 year

Hi Brandon! I got the companion pass by credit card promo from 02/23-02/24. I have 70K points.
So. What is the best way for me to keep my companion pass since I already have one SW credit card and have received a “bonus”/promo? Do I need to wait until 03/25?

[oranginality]

Hi, I signed up for the personal card, 60k and 30% off flight promotion. If by the of the year, I only get let's say 100k points, I should wait until afterJanuary 1 to spend money on the rest of the required points to get the companion pass that way I get it for as close to 2 calendar years as possible? I would not be losing points or anything if I didn't make the 135k in a calendar year, is that correct??

[jeremycurtiss]

Question. I just earned my companion pass today, good through 12/31/24. Can I book a flight say on 12/31/24 for travel in March 2025 and still be able to use the companion pass?

[christimpone]

Do you need a personal business to apply for a business card? Like a tax ID for the business?

[faithharshe]

I finally got under 5/24 and was approved for the Southwest Premier Business card today! Hoping to have the companion pass in early 2023. Thanks for more clarification in the video, as always!

[thecointrader]

Can I myself apply for both a personal Southwest card and a business card at the same time? Thanks

[cknopp]

Would you go ahead and apply for both personal and business now?

[Beafybrian]

Do hotel booked through southwest portal points count towards companion pass. Hotels have extra points added .

[thecointrader]

Great Info! Question. Do you have a video about how to continue earning companion fare every two years? Thanks

[LasaterKinikini]

why should i wait 30 days to apply for the personal southwest credit card? I got the business card this month.

[HenryZhangisHappy]

Hey Brandon, very informative video! I was wondering: would the bonus points earned through booking hotels via southwest travel count toward the 135K requirement?

[EthanPatrick_CreditCards]

For anyone looking for companion pass right now, the personal card offers have changed to 50k points for 3k in spend (down from 75K a few days ago) and the business cards are 60k and 80k points.

Can my wife cancel her current personal soutwest card, then reapply to get the 75k bonus?
