Also note, the Southwest miles need to be earned in a single calendar year. So sign up for them now, but do not start using the cards until January! That way all the miles will count towards the 110,000 mile minimum to be awarded a free companion pass.

I'm not sure I follow your logic here. If you have to spend $10,000 in the 1st three months, but it has to be in one calendar year, wouldn't it make more sense to sign up for the cards in January? If someone signs up now, aren't they forfeiting an entire month of spending, ie 1/3 of the time they would have to spend that $10,000?

Is there some indication this promotion will be canceled by then?

I'm just saying to sign up now while both promos are going on. You'll be sure to get the cards by January 1st. And you really only have to spend $4k in three months (assuming you get both cards). You won't get the companion pass until you hit 110,000 miles, which will be good for the remainder of 2013 (whenever you qualify) and the next year. So its best to get to $10k asap, but not required.

This is a stupid question...and I will be checking online, but I was curious if I'd get a quicker response here:

Just got the email today that I've earned my free companion pass. I also ended up earning about $2000 in free airfare from Southwest as well.
