Heads up, Southwest Rapid Rewards credit cardholders! Keep an eye on your email or Southwest account because you might be targeted for a sweet bonus: 25% extra points on up to $3,000 in spending between now and March 31, 2026. That could add up to a whopping 20,000 bonus points! Why should you care? Well, if you're planning any big purchases or already putting a lot on your Southwest card, this is basically free points towards your next flight. The promotion is targeted, meaning not everyone will get it, so make sure to register if you're eligible. These quarterly promotions are a great way to boost your Rapid Rewards balance without changing your spending habits. More points equal more free flights, meaning more vacations! Who doesn't want that?
