You can bring a friend, partner, family member, or anyone on all your flights for free when you have the Southwest Companion Pass. The Companion Pass is one of the best travel deals because there are no restrictions. It’s truly an unlimited pass to fly for free. You just pay airline taxes and fees of $5.60. Normally, you have to fly 100 flights or earn 135,000 Southwest Companion Pass qualifying points in a calendar year to earn this pass.
