FAQs
Q: What’s Southwest® promotional Companion Pass®?
A: A promotional Companion Pass earned through this offer allows you to designate one person to fly with, free of airline charges (does not include taxes and fees from $5.60 one-way), on flights purchased and flown between August 15, 2023 and September 30, 2023.
Q: Does a flight I booked prior to registration count toward qualification for the Companion Pass promotion?
A: No. Qualifying flights must be booked after you register, between April 3-5, 2023.
Q: What will happen after I meet the requirements to earn promotional Companion Pass through this offer?
A: Once you qualify for promotional Companion Pass (meaning you registered, booked, and traveled on a qualifying round trip or two one-way flight(s) during the applicable dates specified in promotion terms and conditions) we’ll send an email within 10 days. This email lets you know you qualified (woo-hoo!) and includes information on next steps and how to designate and utilize the promotional Companion Pass.
Q: When can I designate my Companion after earning promotional Companion Pass through this offer?
A: You’ll be able to designate a Companion after the promotional Companion Pass is awarded to your account (August 15, 2023).
Q: How can I designate my initial Companion and make changes to my Companion?
A: After the promotional Companion Pass is awarded to your account (August 15, 2023), you can designate your initial Companion within My Account on Southwest.com® or by calling Southwest at 1-800-435-9792. To change your Companion, you must call 1-800-435-9792.
Q: How many times can I change my designated Companion?
A: You may change your designated Companion up to three times during the promotional Companion Pass period. If you achieve Companion Pass in 2023 by earning 135,000 Companion Pass qualifying points or flying 100 qualifying flights, any changes to the designated Companion during the time you have a promotional Companion Pass will reduce the number of changes you can make to your designated Companion in the 2023 calendar year. For example, if you earned a promotional Companion Pass through this promotion, changed your designated Companion twice during the validity period for promotional Companion Pass, and then later in 2023 earned a Companion Pass, you would only be able to change your designated Companion one more time in 2023.
Q: If I book a reservation prior to August 15, 2023 for travel between August 15-September 30, 2023, when can I book my Companion’s reservation?
A: After the promotional Companion Pass has been awarded to your account (August 15, 2023), and you’ve designated your Companion, you can book your Companion’s reservation (subject to flight capacity and availability at the time of booking the promotional Companion Pass).
Q: What changes to a reservation would disqualify a flight from qualifying for promotional Companion Pass through this offer?
A: Any change to a reservation that falls outside of the promotional requirements (enrollment date, booking date, travel date, etc.) will disqualify the flight from this promotion. In other words, flights must be purchased and/or changed during the promotional period and the new flight(s) must be flown between April 3-May 24, 2023 to meet the terms and conditions of this promotion.
