Southwest Is Giving Away 30 Million Rapid Rewards Points
What would you do with 3 million frequent flyer points?
Enter Southwest's "Rapid Rewards 30 Million Point Giveaway" promotion by November 13 for a chance to win 3 million Rapid Rewards points plus a check for $13,500 to cover any taxes due on the prize, one of 10 prizes of 100,000 Rapid Rewards points each, and a slew of 20-point prizes for answering Rapid Rewards questions.
The promotion has three parts: a contest (featuring that big prize), a sweepstakes (with the 10 100,000-point prizes), and weekly "challenges" (20 points per correct answer).
The Big Prize
As befits an outsized prize, you'll have to work to earn those 3 million points.
First, complete and submit a "resume" with responses to questions along the lines of, "As Rapid Rewards Chief Reward Officer, my first order of business will be to ..."
If your resume is judged to be among the top 10,000 entries, you'll earn the chance to create a video "showcasing why you would make a great Chief Reward Officer."
A panel of judges will review the videos and pick a winner, based on creativity (worth 34 percent), originality (33 percent), and quality (33 percent).
The Medium-Sized Prizes
If that's too much work, entering the sweepstakes is quicker and easier. Just register your name and Rapid Rewards membership number to be entered to win one of the 10 100,000-point prizes.
The Lesser Prizes
Every week during the promotion period, there will be a new Rapid Rewards-related question or questions. Answer the questions and receive 20 points for each correct response. (There's a video that pops up beforehand that provides answers to that week's questions.)
The Fine Print
- Promotion is open only to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are at least 18 years old at the time of entry.
- You must have a Rapid Rewards account number to enter.
