Southwest Airlines is offering bonus points when spending on your Southwest credit card for the next week. It’s also giving away prizes of up to 25,000 bonus points during daily drawings through October 7, 2024.

Winning daily prizes and earning 6x on your Southwest credit card is a nice haul, so let’s look at the details of these offers.

6x Bonus Points on Southwest Credit Cards

There’s a new targeted Southwest promotion offering an opportunity to earn 6x bonus Rapid Rewards points per $1 spent on Southwest cards on up to $500 in travel purchases through October 7, 2024.

Registration is required.

Here are the details:

Earn 6x points for each $1 spent on a Southwest Rapid Rewards credit card, up to $500 in purchases with Southwest, including not just flights but also other travel bookable through Southwest.
Purchases must be made between September 30 and October 7, 2024.
Registration is required by October 7, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. CT Purchases will retroactively earn bonus points after registration.
Bonus points count toward Southwest Companion Pass qualification but not towards Southwest elite status.
The following will not earn bonus points: balance transfers, cash advances, traveler’s checks, foreign currency, money orders, wire transfers or other cash-like transactions, lottery tickets, casino gaming chips, racetrack wagers or similar betting transactions, any checks that access your account, interest, unauthorized or fraudulent charges, any fees including the annual fee.
Earned bonus points will be posted to your Southwest account (they will not appear on your credit card statement) within 8 weeks of the promotion end date.

Hot Tip:

You can buy a lot more than flights from Southwest. You should earn bonus points on inflight purchases, paying for early boarding, and more.

2x Points on Southwest Cruises

You can earn double points on Southwest Cruises bookings through October 31, 2024. Eligible sailings run through December 31, 2026, which is a spectacularly long travel period.

There’s no registration required for this offer, and the terms are available here.

Daily Prizes Offering 10 Million Rapid Rewards Points

While the headline sounds incredible, no one is winning 10 million points during the Week of Wow, unfortunately. Between September 30 and October 7, 2024, you can win daily prizes, with the highest being 25,000 bonus points.

Prizes start at 1,000 points, and you need to register daily to win that day’s giveaways.

Southwest Credit Cards

These deals are all targeted to select Southwest Rapid Rewards credit cardholders. Southwest has an array portfolio of cards, each of which comes with a unique offering of perks for Southwest flyers.

There’s a new targeted offer to earn 6x bonus points on Southwest credit cards on up to $500 in purchases through October 7, 2024. Other offers include bonus points on cruises and daily giveaways, also ending on October 7.
