I missed out on the 70,000 offer kicking around last month because it wasn't really part of my strategy for earning companion pass but since there are no 50K SW Bus offers out there I decided to make a run at it yesterday.
If my 36,000+ posts from my SEARS portal buying yesterday, i'll be about 20K short for the companion pass. I thought I would just go in for 70,000 Marriott offer, transfer for 25k in rapid rewards points and be done. I was pretty happy about that this morning and ready to apply but it's gone. There is still a 50,000 offer but that only gets me about 15K to transfer to SW ( I could come up with the other 5K I was short easy enough but i'm trying to be done with this).
I doubt any links are still around (I already looked) but thought I would post anyway, or maybe someone else had a better idea to grab the ~20-25K SW points I will need. I don't really want to burn any of my UR points through Hyatt as I value those much more, but should be good to go for application on any other hotel cards (or others) I can grab a quick bonus and turn into SW points.
(Disclaimer - I don't do much with hotel rewards (I stay at AirBnb's lots), mostly airlines and cashback so I don't mind a less then "stellar" use of hotel rewards if it gets me something else I value more.)
