Stay on southwest and aim for the companion pass. Nothing beats that

Really depends on what you want out of your loyalty. Also depends on where you like to travel using points. Either way, #SouthWorst

Expect traveling internationally for free

Except**, ugh

I already have companion, and it's the only thing causing any hesitation from switching.

OP - where is home base for you?

WM1 - Chicago

I guess you have a few options. If you travel consistently it might be worth timing your challenge to extend the amount of time you have status (e.g., 12 months vs 14-16 months)
