Our Verdict
If you’re not familiar with the Southwest companion pass, I’d recommend reading our dedicated post on it. Basically it means a companion can fly for free with you (even on flights booked with points), you just need to pay the $5.60 security fee. LGB – OAK probably has the cheapest flights at $39 (Tuesday/Wednesday) or $54 (weekends).
One reddit user reporting getting this deal for Denver instead of California as well. Let us know if you got the same deal for a different region.
