Costco.com is again offering $500 Southwest Airlines gift cards for $429.99 for the next few days. This is $20 per card better than the regular discount that we see through Costco, so could be a good value for those with paid travel coming up.
The Deal
- Costco members can get a $500 Southwest Airlines gift card for $429.99 online at Costco.com.
Key Terms and Conditions
- Offer valid May 2-5, 2024
- E-mail delivery
- Limit 5 per membership (YMMV)
Quick Thoughts
This will obviously be a good deal for those who fly paid Southwest flights. The one downside is not being able to earn 3-5x on the airfare purchase, as these will code as a normal Costco purchases. That can be partially offset by using a 2x card like the Costco Visa, the Capital One Venture X or the Capital One Venture Rewards (also remember that you can use Mastercard and Discover on Costco.com purchases).
If you have a Costco Executive membership you’ll also earn 2% back as that’s earned on third party gift card purchases as well.
