Yesterday I mentioned Southwest was adding a few new promotions but the details were not fully loaded yet. Today the details are up including an extension of the nationwide double points offer!
There are currently 5 Southwest promotions running. Here are the details of each.

The bottom line
Clearly there are lots of opportunities to stack these promotions especially for A-List Preferred flyers add another double base points to their earning. I hear Wichita is nice this time of year.
Do these offers preclude portal points (such as chase)?
I am A List Preferred and am planning a trip to Atlanta. It seems to me that I have a potential 4x earning opportunity here: base, status 2x, nationwide 2x and ATL 2x. It’s like getting over 40% of my fare back in points. Am I missing something?
