MILES&POINTS: New Southwest Rapid Rewards members can get a free 2,500 points jumpstart!

For a limited time, Southwest Airlines is offering new Rapid Rewards members (their frequent flyer loyalty program; free to join) up to 2,500 points just for registering and signing up for their email newsletter! 

• Register through this promotional page here.
• You will receive 2,000 points just for registering.
• An additional 500 points will be awarded to your account if you sign up for the Rapid Rewards email newsletter and stay subscribed for at least 3 months.
• The Southwest Rapid Rewards program has always been free to join, but this little bonus is a GREAT incentive to spend a few minutes to create your account. Unfortunately this is only valid for new accounts.

I value each Southwest point at roughly 1.5 cents, which makes 2,500 Southwest points is worth about $37.50. While the 2,500 points may not be enough for a flight, it’s definitely a nice jumpstart!

If you don’t have an account yet, sign up on the promotion page. Or tell your friends and family so they can get in on this and you can all plan a joint trip somewhere in the near future. 🙂
