You should be aware that for pure spend on travel, including Southwest flights, you would do better spending on a Chase Sapphire Reserve (3x points on all travel) or a Chase Sapphire Preferred (2x points on all travel) which can be transferred to Sout2west 1:1 or used on a range of other transfer partners.
Note: You will only be approved for a Chase card if you have applied for fewer than 5 personal credit cards within the last 24 months from any issuer. (Business cards do not count against the total, except for Capital One and Discover, but are subject to the policy). Learn more about the 5/24 rule here.
