Interested in the same question with regards to Southwest points. I want to purchase a 7 Nights + 120,000 Rapid Reward Points package in January 2017 to snag the SW Companion Pass. How quickly can I expect the SW points to appear and thus qualify.

We have SW flights in late January and early February that I'd like to rebook as a companion fare. Any chance of that happening?

The 20 percent bonus currently going on with AA miles posted instantly for me

Did the United bonus post instantly?

In my experience they post within 1-2 business days.

My 132,000 United miles posted within a day or 2. The 20,000 bonus miles are supposed to post by January.

Thanks!!

Please update if it comes earlier!

Also is the 20k bonus once off? Or can be redeemed multiple times?

The United deal is a 25% bonus up to 20,000 maximum. Deal ends 11/30.

Will post on or before 1/31/17.

Must register.

Still waiting.

What is the likelihood of being able to extend the stay element of the Travel Package should you not be able to take it within the year?

As per wiki:

Could someone point me to the United 25% bonus? I can't find it anywhere, and not sure if I have to register first or not. I want to do it again this year, even if it is for 20K miles.

If you go to the Marriott Travel Package page on the Website, the United Bonus is included in the RewardsPlus chart at the top of the page. Other airline redemptions are in the charts below that.

is it possible to book the package and choose the hotel at a later day? say they give me a 7-night certificate instead?

Yes this is possible

You get two separate rewards: The airline points go into your existing airline frequent flyer account and you get a certificate for a seven (or five, if you can get it) night stay. You don't have to use them together. You could use the points to fly to Juneau in January and the hotel cert to stay in Mayfair in May. You don't need to commit to actual locations, but you need to use the cert within a year. In other words, when you order the travel package, you just say, "I want a travel package." You get the cert and the frequent flyer points, but neither is tied to a location.
