I got ahead of myself. Haha! Thanks for the reminder.
The companion pass showed up on my account, added my person, but won't let me book. My guess it won't until midnight?
Edit
***Never mind, needed the system to warm up I guess, I was able to book the flights about 10 mins after adding my person.

Is there any way to add a companion just to the first leg of a round trip? The person booked the trip as a RT instead of two separate one ways.

If you can't do it online, likely it can be over the phone. Or just add the companion to the entire trip and cancel the return once the first leg flown?

Finally, always book Southwest reservations as one-way trips. There is no price advantage to booking a round trip and one-way trips give you maximum flexibility, especially if the fare goes down and you rebook to save money.

I received my Congratulatory greeting yesterday (1/6/22) and finally confirmed my eligibility. As I didn't get the congratulatory greeting immediately after completing my qualifying flight, I've already booked away from Southwest thinking I somehow didn't qualify.

I completed qualifying flights but have never received anything. However I reached 100 flight credits in December, so no harm done.
