Why do we recommend it?
This is a great card for anyone who frequently flies on Southwest. It’s low minimum spend and generous sign-up bonus makes it a favorite for earning the companion pass. The $75 travel credit effectively makes the annual fee $74.
Keep in mind that you can only hold one of the three southwest personal cards offered by Chase at a time. And you are only eligible for the bonus if you have not earned another bonus from any SW personal card in the last 24 months.
