The Southwest Rapid Rewards® Plus card offers an average value of 1.5 cents per point. This means if you get 10,000 points, this totals $150 on average. How you choose to redeem your points may influence the value you get per point. So if you want to maximize the value of your rewards, aim for redemption options that offer the most value per point.

The number of points you need for a rewards flight depends on the fare. Reward flight pricing, just like fares, can vary depending on time, day of travel, destination, demand, fare class, point redemption rate, as well as other factors. Reward flight pricing is also subject to change.

With the Southwest Rapid Rewards® Plus card you can earn 3,000 bonus points upon every account anniversary, and 2 EarlyBird Check-in each year.
