Don’t forget! The limited-time increased sign-up bonuses on the Chase Southwest Plus and Chase Southwest Premier cards end tomorrow, October 4, 2017.
So if you’re thinking about opening either of these cards to earn the Southwest Companion Pass, you’ll have to apply today or tomorrow!

You have until tomorrow, October 4, 2017, to apply for the Chase Southwest Plus and Chase Southwest Premier cards before their 60,000 point sign-up bonus is reduced.
By earning 60,000 bonus points from 1 personal and 1 small business Southwest card, you’ll have more than the 110,000 Southwest points required in a calendar year to earn the Southwest Companion Pass!
I consider the Southwest Companion Pass to be the best deal in travel. Because it allows you to bring a travel buddy with you for practically free on any paid or award Southwest ticket for up to 2 years!
To get the biggest value from the Companion Pass, you should earn the bonus from these cards as early in the year as possible.
That’s because the Companion Pass is good through the calendar year you earn the points, as well as the following calendar year. So if you apply for the cards now, and wait to complete your minimum spending after your December 2017 statement closes, your points will post in January 2018. And your Companion Pass will be good until December 31, 2019!
Bottom Line
The increased 60,000 Southwest point offers for both Chase Southwest personal credit cards will end tomorrow, October 4, 2017.
By earning 2 of these increased sign-up bonuses (from 1 personal and 1 business card), you’ll earn more than enough Southwest points to qualify for the Southwest Companion Pass. Which Emily and I consider the best deal in travel!
