How valuable are Southwest points? Only ever flew United or Delta before and have a project where I'll be flying SW for the next ~6 months

I freaking LOVE southwest. Also make sure to actively check the promotions tab in your account. I often got double points promotions and earned 14k points in ONE WEEK one time!! It was awesome.

I built up 180k points, earned the companion pass, and have flown my husband around with me for free at least 5 times already this year!

Companion pass is great, the service is good, and the coach product is comparable to everyone else. Your essentially only missing out on upgrades and international reward tickets (they have some, but very limited). Overall, a nice airline and a good option.

About to board a SW flight. Best travel for personal hands down imo.

SW points can be awesome if you get the Companion Pass. All domestic flights two-for-one for a couple of years.

Valuable in the sense that it's very cheap to fly (5k points from Denver to MDW). But they don't have much coverage in terms of the routes or more importantly flexibility when it comes to transferring your points.

Companion pass the last 2 years. Enough points to fly across the country as much as I want

Damn 5k is cheap. I think I'll be getting 4k each roundtrip

I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!
