My daughter and granddaughter fly SWA a lot.

Is it possible to give to my daughter the benefit of the 350,000 award for the
six RRs on SWA and then have her daughter be her companion or is it just
available to the point holder?

I think this would be better asked in the Southwest forum, located here (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=501).

No, I think this is posted correctly, this is a question for Hilton. If it was an earned CP on WN, then it would need to be asked in the WN forum. My suggestion is to ask Cynthia, or call the diamond desk, as I'm sure you must be with 350k in points. Get a manager involved. You can, of course, always gift the RR tickets, but I have no clue on the CP.

The CP holder and the award holder must be the same, since Hilton merely sends 100 credits to a single RR account. But the awards are usable by anyone, so what's the problem? Yes, the RR account holder has to book the trips, but you can just give your daughter your RR account number and password and she can book them.

Thanks. didn't think of that. As you can change the CP holder, I think its
three times per year, shouldn't be a problem.

You cannot change the CP *holder* (primary passenger). You can change the CP *companion* (free passenger) up to 3 times per year.

That's what I meant.

Thanks for confirming.
