Southwest Airlines College Rapid Rewards Program : Kathika Travel Website

If you are a student who does a lot of traveling, you are well aware of how quickly the expenses add up. It is not uncommon for a student who goes home during the holidays while in college to rack up a significant amount in travel expenses.

Thankfully, Southwest Airlines now has a program that can help college students save money. The program, which is called the Southwest Airlines College Rapid Rewards Program, allows college students between the ages of 18 and 23 to earn free airline tickets. Simply pay for three round trip tickets from Southwest Airlines and you will then be eligible for the free ticket.

In Southwest Airlines’ normal Rapid Rewards program, it usually takes at least 8 round trip flights (16 credits) to earn a free ticket. However students will earn four bonus credits for enrolling, plus they’ll get one bonus credit for each one-way flight they make while they are enrolled in the program.

With 60 destinations, Southwest Airlines reaches most major college cities in the United States. To enroll, students can go to Southwest.com/rrenroll/college.
