Hello friends! Smiley Very Happy
I'm hoping the moderator will reply to this asap, as she seems to be immensely helpful to others and will actually respond to and fix problems the community have!

1. If I apply for and receive a Southwest travel credit card, when does the "year to accrue 110K miles" begin and end? 


2. Does the year begin on the date that my application is

accepted or when I receive the card? 

 

3. When does the year end? 

 

4. Example: If I apply now, in October 2017, does my year end on December 31, 2017, or does it end 12 months later?

 

If it ends in December 2017, then there is no incentive to

apply for the card now, with only two months left in this year. 

Also, is it possible, at all, to actually accrue the 110K miles within one year, for an average person who flies 1-3 times per year, maximum?

I know I will not spend $110,000, on the credit card... so how is it possible to actually attain this benefit, to earn the

companion pass?

All suggestions, experience and thoughts are greatly appreciated!

 

Thank you friends...Smiley Happy
