Earning Points for Booking Business Travel for Others

[DOXIEMAMA]

Dear Southwest,

Do you offer a program for earning personal Rapid Rewards points when I book SWA travel for my colleagues? I am responsible for booking a large amount of the flights for my colleagues who don't care about the points, and I would love to be able to personally claim them for choosing Southwest for these passengers. Quid pro quo, so to speak.

Like your flight attendants always say at the end of every flight... "We know you have many choices when flying, so thank you for flying today with Southwest Airlines."

Thanks!

Nope, but you can earn RR points if you put the charges on your own Chase RR credit card.

I am not all that familiar with the program, but there is something called SWABIZ that can be used to book business flights.  I'm not sure exactly how it works but think the business gets some points in addition to the traveler.  You can look into that.

SWABIZ is just a sepcial site for business travelers tobook business travel.

Like most airlines, SW offers discounts to various businesses. Those businesses reap the benefits of those discounts when travelers book at SWBIZ.
