Thanks to everyone who participated. A winner has been randomly selected. Congratulations to Mike Reitsma! Safe travels.

Happy holidays! Longtime and ever generous reader CaveDweller is once again offering one lucky reader a $51 Southwest gift card. Southwest gift cards are fully transferable and don’t expire. There are two ways to enter:

  1. Comment on this post
  2. Follow us on Facebook.
  3. Retweet this tweet.

Each person can enter all three ways to triple their chances of winning (just make sure I can tell through each social media platform who it is).

I’ll choose one winner from the entries and notify the winner on January 1, so enter by December 31 (Sunday).

Read more about Southwest and how to maximize the Rapid Rewards program in Southwest Companion Pass Masterthread. The offers for the Chase issued Southwest cards have changed since the last time that post was updated–they are not all still 60k each, but 40k for both personal cards (the Plus and Premier) and 60k for the business Premier.

Thanks again, CaveDweller, for helping start MileValue readers’ 2018 on the right foot! Happy New Year everyone!
