Many. Southwest Gift card sales at Costco and Sam's always make front page.
That agent was indeed misinformed. The terms specifically say "Not valid on flights purchased with Rapid Rewards points." I would trust the terms over random agent.
Cancelled current Apr flight and rebooked. Paid $165 extra for 2 months of companion. Lets see how much I can use it.

Does anyone know if booking through Concur for work would trigger this? It's not 100% clear if it has to be booked direct on swa.com

Tempted to make a short trip within CA to qualify. Too bad no direct flight to east coast from Bay Area. Could use companion pass this Labor Day.

Took advantage of the same deal last year for a free Hawaiian roundtrip! Definitely worth going for, if you need to travel around next month anyways.

Do we need to actually take the flight for this to work? I wouldn't mind booking the cheapest possible option to get the CP.

Would it work if I cancelled a fight and booked it back with the credit?
I saw the only stipulation was booking with points.
