It's ironic that Southwest announced this killer deal the day after the 60k offers expired. Now it's obvious to all that those bloggers who pimped the expiring offers did not serve their readers well. When the bloggers get their commission-earning links they will pretend they never urged readers to jump on the earlier offers.
This offer will create challenges when Southwest announces service to Hawaii. Because of that I did not expect to see another instant Companion Pass offer. It must be all about thrashing Alaska Airlines.
By mid-year Southwest may have thoughts about restricting heavy use of the Companion Pass to and from Hawaii after 2019.
