Route to the Companion Pass
135,000 qualifying points, one calendar year, one companion who flies almost free.
Estimate only. The cardholder boost (10,000 qualifying points per open card) and the 135,000-point threshold reflect current published Southwest terms — confirm both directly with Southwest before relying on this for a real plan, since program terms can change. This also assumes your monthly spend starts earning right away; some welcome bonuses post only after you clear the spend requirement, which can push your date back.
