2 separate Rewards accounts using one email address

my wife and I share one household email.  Seems I cannot establish a separate Rewards account for her using the same email as my Rewards membership.  Any suggestions are welcome.

Gmail lets you add a + and additional text to your existing email address and it still goes to your account.

Example: bob+southwest@gmail.com goes to bob@gmail.com

 

Other email providers may offer something similar.

The system won't let you make 2 accounts (with different names) under the same email that's interesting must be an update because back in 2014 I created my sister an account under my email (she didn't have an email at that time) and so technically we both had an account under my email up until she updated to her own email a couple years a go (I still randomly get her monthly emails to this day) maybe they think it would be a duplicate. 

 

You could always call 800-435-9792 and maybe they can create the account under the same email as I know several people do share an email address. 

 

Another thought if you have a work email use that for creating the account.
