Our Take
Nothing beats a free giveaway — especially one from a brand you can trust. I'd recommend entering this Southwest Airlines sweepstakes every day until June 18, 2021 to win bonus points with Rapid Rewards.

Southwest Airlines will have other memorabilia available through their online store to commemorate their 50 years of service, including Retro Hostess Build-A-Bears, a silk 70s Retro Hostess Scarf, Southwest Birthday T-shirts, Southwest 50th Anniversary pins, and much more.
Southwest Airlines has certainly been flourishing and prospering through the pandemic. And, now this sweepstakes is a huge benefit to members. If you're not already a Southwest Rapid Rewards member, perhaps now is the time to become one.

we have enjoyed flying with southwest for many many years
Good luck to everyone
A bit of work for not a lot of miles and a very low probability but free is free.
Has anyone won anything yet? I’ve been playing every day since last week and thus far have had no luck 🙁
Same here. I was thinking that with thousands of prizes a day, I might eventually win at least 50 bonus points, but nothing so far.
This is amazing!
Would love to win those! Would be great 🙂
0 for 7, but I guess I’ll keep trying!
This is amazing! Have this bookmarked!
I won 50 points! It can’t get me far but anyway I liked it. Hoping for more to come!
I love how creative the marketing staff is at Southwest.
The odds of winning any prize, even a measly 50 points, is very low. That’s a huge drawback compared to AA’s 40th anniversary promo where it was easier to win a prize.
Thanks for the heads up, AwardWallet!
So far I have won 50 miles. The american airlines one gave away more miles during their 50th anniversary promo.
I saw this yesterday and have yet to win anything. Oh well. I love that SW is doing this. Kind of like what AA did though. I wonder if someone in marketing thought this would be good and tweaked it a bit.
Done. Long life to Southwest. Let’s go for the next 50 years. Thanks
It is just like the AA promotion sweepstakes, so many people will benefit.
Whilst not normally interested in Southwest, the opportunity of winning something makes me interested, so I will probably set up an account. This seems to be a clever marketing move by Southwest.
Way to go Southwest….hoping for a big win here!
Wish I would have found out about this on the 1st but i’ll take it. Thanks for the headsup!
Fun offer from Southwest….hopefully there will be some winning days between now and June 18th!
Great promo from SW! Entered
Nice opportunity to play and maybe to win! Enjoy it!
