What are the Companion Pass Rules and Regulations?
Companion Pass status is based on taking 100 qualifying one-way flights or earning 110,000 Qualifying Points in a calendar year.  A qualifying flight for Rapid Rewards Companion Pass status is a one-way revenue flight on Southwest Airlines from an origin city to a destination city, including any intermediate stops and/or connections on Southwest Airlines.  Companion Pass Qualifying Points are earned from revenue flights, points issued on Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Credit Cards, and points earned from Rapid Rewards Partners.  Purchased points and points earned from program enrollment, Tier bonuses, flight bonuses, and Partner bonuses do not count toward Companion Pass status

Why aren't Chase points counted?

Do you only get one person you can fly with the entire year, or can you choose a different person whenever you make a flight?

I believe you can change it up to 3 times.

Great, Thanks.
My points just posted, looking to book something to LA. Little annoyed that they do not have any direct flights showing...

Check PHL
PHL is a bit far for us to leave from. The flight there is manageable because of a 'late' (6PM) departure and the time change. The latest flights heading back are 12:45PM which eats a whole day for me. Any idea if they have later flights which i take and then connect over to EWR or LGA?

1 Day
Its a matter of a fact, no explanation.
??? ???
I sent them a letter. we'll see if they get back to me before my statement closes and I get more points.
I need to book 2 tickets to Dallas
I'm thinking of flying Direct to Austin and driving 3 hours.
We'll see the price.
Otherwise its 40k BA if there is availability

If I have 2 different southwest accounts that both got the 50k bonus and I merge them will the miles still qualify for a companion pass?
Did this ever work? ???
I have an old account with like 1500 points in it. Should I merge them or is it dangerous  :-\

I never done it, but I can't see how it would be dangerous.

I signed up for the two southwest cards with the 50k bonus each and spent 5k on the card so far. I called to complain about something and got another 5k from chase. Will the last 5k count toward my companion pass? Anyone have any experience with this or something similar?

It should, IMO.
SW doesn't know why Chase issued you the points, all they know is that they were issued.
