Yes, thanks for your reply and feedback. JB Family Pooling is rather sophisticated. It is optional, I had to sign up and agree to pool my points with my husband. I can request to "unpool” at any time, Points are “tagged” per person so that my points would be returned to my account. The Pooling allows us to purchase a ticket for which alone we would be shy of points, and purchasing or paying to gift points would not make ecomonic sense. Also the Pooling is really helpful for a family with children who might qualify for purchasing 1 flight using pooled points. Actually the JB Pooling Program has promoted people I know to fly JB instead of SW.

YES, totally agree that it’s great if you have checked luggage. (JB does charge but their fares are lower than SW.) BUT, the JB sharing points is a great program. And SW just recently (within the past couple of years) disallowed me the purchaser of the tickets to use a/my credit balance, only the passenger.

Wouldn't it be great if my favorite Southwest Airlines would initiate a Family Pooling Plan for Rapid Rewards Points (like Jet Blue’s program)? And allow credited funds be used towards Family members’ ticket purchases? I think this would be a welcomed enhancement for us loyal SWA fans.
