For those who found the table I made helpful, I've added a new section to the Wiki FAQ, copying this information there. That's probably a better place to make updates.

mritty, my Alamo car rental bonus points from this summer were CPQ. Others have reported the same thing. The promotion that I was using said nothing about the bonus points specifically being CPQ, so I assume that a) they are indeed CPQ or b) WN made a mistake.

I'll add a footnote to the table that some people are getting CPQPs for Partner bonus points. I don't think we should make the assumption that they will be, however, while Southwest's own T&C explicitly state that they're not.

Separately - did something affect the Wiki? I no longer see all of the TQP/CPQP information that had been there. And, when I look at the revision history, it shows the last revision as Dec. 1, 2011 (before mritty's last revision noted above). I do note that for a while last week, I couldn't even get the Wiki to load - attempts to view the page kept timing out. So, maybe there were issues and page reverted to an earlier version? Or, am I the only one seeing this problem?

Also, erewards points are CPQPs. I just transfered 25 erewards dollars for 500 RR points and they are showing up as CPQPs. So there is that. I don't think we had that info for sure before.

Glad to hear it! It was left unclear in this thread: southwest rapid rewards now partners with erewards and I couldn't find recent confirmation either.

Hi, I'm not a member of RR, but I am thinking of booking some flights on South West to get around the US in May.. I have been looking on an AA thread and they have people offering promo codes which get you like 5% to 7% off some AA flights out of different airports... Does anyone know of such discount/promo codes for South West that i could use???
