SOUTHWEST AIRLINES Travel Award- Can I sell this R/T ticket?

Question

I am a Rapid Rewards member and it looks like my roundtrip reward will expire before I get ot use it. Is there somewhere on the net where I can sell this award for someone else to use?

Answer 1

Some people advertise items like yours on Craig's list. If you belong to any social organizations, I would try them as well. Make sure that you hurry to get rid of it. The rules have changed, you can no longer pay to get the expiration extended. Good Luck!!!!!

Answer 2

You can get it reissued for a $50 fee.  

Someone else can use it, but you have to make the reservation yourself.

Answer 3

Southwest Airlines specifically forbids the sale of Rapid Rewards tickets. It is listed in the rules and regulations:

"All Rapid Rewards Awards are transferrable; however, Awards or Drink Coupons may not be sold, purchased, brokered, or bartered. The Awards and Drink Coupon Books have no cash value and are void if sold, purchased, brokered, or bartered. All transactions in the Rapid Rewards program are subject to review and adjustment by Southwest Airlines. Southwest Airlines will cancel the Member's account, A-List Membership (if applicable), Awards, and any associated reservations if misuse or violation of Rapid Rewards rules is suspected. It is also against Rapid Rewards rules to offer to buy or sell Awards via Internet auction sites or classified advertisements, whether the transaction is completed or not. "

So the short answer is, No. Long answer, pay the $50 and get it reissued, or plan yourself a nice little trip before it expires.
