ByMove Marriott Reward Points to Southwest Companion Pass the Easy Way
Hotel and airline reward programs make it possible to earn free or discounted hotel stays or free, discounted, or companion tickets on your favorite airline. These programs are popular with companies like United, Hilton, Delta and Marriott.
These programs are great, but sometimes to get the best deals, you have to be creative and search by trial and error to get the best deals.
You can also move points from one club to the next if the providers have an agreement, and DoNotPay makes it super easy. If you need to , DoNotPay can help.

Marriott Rewards - Airline Miles
There are two different earnings programs within Marriott that members have to choose from. Members must select whether to earn regular points or airline miles. This makes a big difference when you use them. The good news is you can change your mind and go back and forth between the two. The difficulty comes when you have a bunch of points and miles, but not enough to do anything with either one without combining cash. There are different benefits to each program.
Each airline has its own rewards program. Many airlines have agreements with Marriott Rewards. Registering with Marriott Rewards to earn specific airline miles will usually qualify the member to receive all the benefits of the airline's program - but not always.
Here are a few airlines, including Southwest, and their agreements with Marriott:
| Marriott Transfer Partner | Min Transfer | Transfer Ratio (Marriott > Partner) | Bonus Airline Miles
for every 60k Marriott Points Transferred | Transfer Time (based on pre-merger reports) |
| Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan | 3,000 | 3:1 | 5,000 | 4 Days |
| American Airlines AAdvantage | 3,000 | 3:1 | 5,000 | 2 Days |
| Delta Air Lines SkyMiles | 3,000 | 3:1 | 5,000 | 1 Day |
| FRONTIER Miles | 3,000 | 3:1 | 5,000 | Unknown |
| JetBlue TrueBlue | 3,000 | 6:1 | 2,500 | 1 Day |
| Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards | 3,000 | 3:1 | 5,000 | 1 Day |
| United MileagePlus | 3,000 | 3:1.1 | 5,500 | 3 Days |
Southwest Airlines Companion Pass Qualification: It’s Complicated
cannot be transferred directly to the Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Program to qualify for a Companion Pass. But Marriott airline miles DO qualify for a companion pass if the Rapid Rewards account is registered with Marriott. Sound complicated? Yes, it is. Airlines and hotel reward programs make you jump through hoops to qualify for many of the perks of their programs.
There is a solution. DoNotPay sorts through these complex loopholes to get you more points, more miles, and free travel when you need it.
