I just recieved 2 new SW credit cards with a total of 100k towards CP. It is Oct 31,2018 today. I have to spend $3k and $1k for the rewards to count towards the CP. I am planning to accumulate rewards for 2019 and 2020. I have no immediate need of using the CP for now. When do I start using the cards ? I am just afraid that RR points do not post before Jan 1st. I understand that points take about 4 weeks to count, but what does that exactly mean? If I do make purchases and the points count/posted before Jan 1st, do the points expire? So, basically I am asking what approximate date should I start using the cards? Thanks for helping me out.

What is the best timeline to receive 2 year companion pass? As of today there are 2 credit card offers that I could apply; Southwest Rapid Rewards® Priority Credit Card and Southwest Rapid Rewards® Premier Business Credit Card. This would be 100,000 points. The remaining 10,000 points would be fairly easy to accumulte in a timely manner. When should I apply for each card? After I meet the spending requirement for each card;typically when are they credited? To answer my own question; is this correct? I would think that I should apply for each card in mid December for the points to be credited in January 2019. Then the rest of the points should accumulate to the companion points as I spend.
