Wouldn't it be great to know your lifetime miles flown on Southwest? I think it would be really cool if we could see that as a feature on our profiles as Rapid Rewards members.

Hello-
Interesting suggestion. I have a travel log and agree it would be cool to know how many total actual miles I flew aboard the LUV airline since I started flying with Southwest. However, SW is currently devoting its resources to implementing Assigned Seating and a bunch of other enhancements for 2025 and I'm not sure if they'll even be able to consider this suggestion until after the 2025 launch.
Either way, I would give SW Customer Service an email or DM via Twitter/X and submit your comment there so that it reaches the proper staff personnel as this forum is customer-to-customer:
https://support.southwest.com/helpcenter/s/email-us
As for now, this may help:
For your flights taken within the last 18 months, log in to your RR profile via the SW website (full desktop version), go to My Account.
In the blue header area, click on "Trips"
Click on the white "Past" button to view your trip history.
As mentioned, 18 months worth of travel is available via the self-serve tools. If you need history beyond the 18-month marker, give SW Customer Service an email:
https://support.southwest.com/helpcenter/s/email-us
The next step will involve some work but once you have your entire flight history, calculate the miles in between your city pairs and add them up. FlightAware may be your best resource to determine a route's actual distance in lieu of the direct (flying-crow) miles.
Hope this helps!

I log on JetLovers but the record isn't lifetime for me and if I forgot to check in once in a while so it may not be a complete record.
As long as I remember to check in at the connection airport it would account for the "actual" miles instead of origin and destination miles only, but should be close to what Southwest could track, if they chose to track it.

This includes a handful of flights with the other guys, mainly due to flying internationally on one recent trip and a trip to Newark where LGA wasn't really a substitute.

Both UA and AA tell me how many life time miles I have on them. Havenl't checked my DL account since I've not flown DL since it pulled it;s Dallas hub decades ago. I do check my Skymiles account every once in a while. Knowing a SW lifetime number would be nice. - but even that would since RR came about. I had lots of flights before then.
Then there all those "deceased" airlines that I;ve flown; Braniff, Eastern Ozark, Western Pacific, Midway, ATA , Canadian - I'm sure there are a few that I've forgotten.
Plus a few on Spirit and Frontier and Lufthansa.
