Southwest has a loyal following thanks to customer-friendly perks like free checked bags and a flexible change and cancellation policy. Now, you can get all those benefits for less, thanks to this latest promotion.

Travelers can take 20% off their Southwest Airlines flights for a limited time. The Dallas-based airline is partnering with points and miles expert Max Do (better known as MaxMilesPoints on social media) to offer the deal.

Here’s what you should know to take advantage.
