Your fall flights just got a lot more rewarding. Southwest Airlines is offering 2x Rapid Rewards points on flights through December 17, 2025, but you’ll need to enroll in the promotion first, and you need to book by October 6 — just a few days from now.

Let’s take a closer look at everything you need to know about this new Southwest promotion.

Double Points on Flights Promotion Details

To take full advantage of this double points promo, you’ll need to first register.

Book and fly within the promotions eligible dates to earn double Rapid Rewards points on cash fares — an easy way to supercharge your points on your next Southwest trip. There’s no cap on the number of points you can earn, which is great for those who take multiple qualifying flights.

To qualify, you must book your flights directly with Southwest, either online, in the mobile app, or through swabiz.com. Bookings through third-party channels and bookings made using points aren’t eligible for this offer. However, flights paid for with LUV Vouchers, gift cards, flight credits, and a mix of points and cash are eligible. If you book a points + cash fare, you’ll earn double points on the portion of your flight you paid for. You won’t earn points on the portion of the ticket covered by your Rapid Rewards points.

Both one-way and round-trip reservations are eligible for double Southwest points in this offer.

Existing reservations aren’t eligible for this offer. If you have existing flights for travel between October 3 and December 17, 2025, it could be worth utilizing Southwest’s friendly cancellation policy and then booking a new flight for extra points — assuming the price didn’t go up so much that it negates any extra points you’d earn by doing this.

Hot Tip:

Earn even more points on your Southwest flights when you pay with a credit card that earns bonus rewards on airfare.

Final Thoughts

Southwest’s latest promotion makes fall travel even more rewarding. You can earn an unlimited number of extra points, thanks to double rewards on flights through December 17, 2025.

If you’re interested in this offer and have fall travel plans coming up, remember that you need to register for this offer. You also need to book by October 6, 2025, which is coming soon, so don’t delay.
