I did this with Delta to get Gold. Every little bit helps when you want to fly with family.

No business travel. Just personal travel and points from my SW credit card.

We have it because DH uses a SW credit card for his business--lots of expenses reimbursed by clients.

I called and asked and they said no. Do you put the credit cards in the same person name or each spouse?

Thanks! Last minute check of my account left me so very close to the threshold so I left my family yesterday and flew all day. I have to assume it will never happen again, so planning to exhaust the benefits!

wait.. you actually flew all day to get the miles? where did you go?

I'm on vacation right now, so I flew from the South to Baltimore and back. That took care of what I needed. It was actually a pretty nice day...watched movies, relaxed in the terminal and knitted, and watched movies back.

We had the Companion pass in 2014 -- it was amazing. I went everywhere with my wife (who travels a lot for business), just because it was free. Plus we were always in A group! Enjoy!

The companion pass is a crazy good deal. Totally worth it - enjoy!

Congrats!!! It is the best thing ever! We got ours March this year and have it until December 2017, it feels like free travel, esp when you use the miles to book the flights!

Congrats OP. This is one of my frivolous life goals.

I used to do it years ago. Take a flight with a layover to hit 100 legs on united and get 1K status.

And yes this is a brag, but I want to share anonymously that I just earned the Companion Pass and I'm so excited for 2017 travel
