"To qualify for A-List status, you will need to fly 25 Southwest Airlines one-way qualifying flights or earn 35,000 Tier Qualifying points per calendar year.  To qualify for A-List Preferred status, you will need to fly 50 Southwest Airlines one-way qualifying flights or earn 70,000 Tier Qualifying points per calendar year.  A one-way qualifying flight is defined as a one-way revenue trip on Southwest Airlines from an origin city to a destination city, including any intermediate stops and/or connections on Southwest Airlines.  Tier Qualifying points are earned from revenue flights or through the Rapid Rewards Premier Card from Chase.  Points earned via Rapid Rewards Partners, with the exception of the Rapid Rewards Premier Card from Chase, purchased points, bonus points, or points earned via a promotion are not Tier Qualifying points and do not count toward A-List and A-List Preferred qualification."


You can earn A-List Tier Qualifying Points from the Southwest Visa Premier Card by Chase.

 

That info posted even says, "Tier Qualifying points are earned from revenue flights or through the Rapid Rewards Premier Card from Chase."

 

Here is the relevant information:

 

A Member who has a Rapid Rewards Premier Card from Chase will earn 1,500 Tier Qualifying Points for every $10,000 in eligible net purchases on that card, up to 15,000 Tier Qualifying Points per year.

 

These Tier Qualifying Points show up about a week after the regular points have posted to your RR account (which is generally a few days after your Visa card account closing date). They will show up in Recent Activity under "Point type" All as a zero-point line item:

If you change the "Point type" to "Tier Qualifying Points" you'll see the 1,500 accounted there.

If you're not seeing this, and you're sure you have the Premier card, contact Chase.

 

Hope this helps!
