Convert 25k YX to 3 free trips on Southwest
This is the best conversion deal in the history of the Southwest forum, so I thought I'd alert members here to it. This works in blocks of 5k miles (either CO or YX), converting each 5k block into 10 Rapid Rewards credits. 16 credits earn a free ticket. You do the math. It's insane.
This deal was posted by gleff in his View from the Wing a few weeks back, and people have now completed the conversion successfully. It takes about 2 weeks.
Read the two threads (linked below) on the SWA forum very carefully. All the answers you need are there if you look, so don't post unless you absolutely need to. We'd like to keep this low profile, and I will delete discussion of loopholes. This deal is fragile enough as it is.

This is the perfect use for orphan miles (family members who rarely fly YX), and it's a great value for the full 25k as well.
