The reason I know is because one of our host daughters from Afghanistan has been really wanting to get this card. I’ve been telling her to hold out for a higher welcome bonus.
She was so excited when I emailed her this new elevated welcome bonus offer yesterday.
It’s a limited time welcome bonus of 85,000 points on all 3 of the Southwest personal cards.
It expires 19 days from now.
If you’re looking to get the Companion Pass, I’d encourage you to pass on this offer and wait to get this card until later in the year.
But if you’re just looking for a Southwest card with a great welcome bonus, this is definitely a good time to get it.
There are 3 Southwest personal cards offering this bonus: Plus, Premier & Priority
Here are the main differences:
Plus
- 3,000 bonus points each year on card anniversary
- 2 early bird check-ins
- 2x points spent on Southwest purchases
- $69/year annual fee
Premier
- 6,000 bonus points each year on card anniversary
- 2 early bird check-ins
- 3x points spent on Southwest purchases
- $99/year annual fee
Priority
- 7,500 bonus points each year on card anniversary
- 4 upgraded boardings
- 3x points spent on Southwest purchases
- $75 Southwest annual travel credit
- $149/year annual fee
And, remember, once you get the card, if you send your referral link to a spouse, family member, or friend who gets the card, you earn an additional 20,000 points per referral up to 100,000 extra points per year.
Speaking of, would you use our referral link if you don’t already have a family member or friend referring you to this card? We’d love that & we’ll take all the Southwest points we can get! 😜
