Drink coupons

So as a weekly flyer with Southwest I used to get drink coupons in the mail after 4 flights or so but now nothing … I can only presume that everyone else around me had these now luxurious coupons from past negative experiences but come on why do you stop rewarding your loyal customers??

First of all it was 4 drink coupons after 10 paid flights.

 

Second,  many flight attendants are not asking for payment for drinks. In my case in only 2 of my past 12 flights have I had to pay. I would have had to fly 20 paid flights to get 8 drink coupons, but I just got 10 free drinks,

 

You do the match.

I also give them the chance to take my expired coupons as well which they often do.

 

And don't offer the coupon until they ask for it, maybe it is a free day?

 

*Be prepared to offer a coupon or pay if the FA does come back for it.

This was discussed in this thread earlier this year - Southwest stopped sending out coupons - we do not know when they will send them again. I'm crossing my fingers that they move to digital coupons.
