2 Free Roundtrip Flights from AirTran Credit Card Offer
11:17 PM
This is an exciting
new credit card offer I found out about from Miles Mama. Even though AirTran doesn't fly
out of SLC it can be a real benefit and here's why. . .AirTran is merging with
Southwest Airlines so the A+ Rewards AirTran credits can be transferred to
Southwest Airlines. It is important to jump on this offer fast because
AirTran offers will soon become a thing of the past.
How it works:
- Sign up for AirTran's A+
Rewards
- Sign up for the Chase AirTran A+ Rewards credit card
- Charge $2,000 in the first 3 months
- The $69 annual fee will be added to your first months
statement
- When you get your 32 A+ Rewards credits you can
transfer them to Southwest Airlines but first you need to sign up for a Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards account.
- My understanding is that 1 AirTran A+ Reward
credit is equal to 1,200 to Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards
(i.e. 32 AirTran A+ Reward credits is equal to
38,400 Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards.)
- More information about converting AirTran A+ Rewards to
Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards can be found here. There are other details like
expiration dates and blackout dates. You can also find more
information about transferring points from The Points Guy.

Review:
As you know I am a
huge fan of Southwest Airlines because you can use Rapid Rewards on any flight.
We have already received our 50,000 Rapid Rewards points from another
Chase promotion so this is another way to get more Rapid Rewards points by
applying for another related card. My wife and I both applied for this
card and we were instantly approved! The downer is that the $69 annual
fee is not waived, however it's a small price to pay for two roundtrip airline
tickets.
