Verdict
Our Pick: Southwest Rapid Rewards Plus
With a 4.2/5 rating, the Southwest Rapid Rewards Plus edges out the Capital One SavorOne Cash Rewards (4.1/5). At $69/yr, the value proposition is strong. The Southwest Plus is the entry point to the Southwest ecosystem. The Companion Pass promotion alone can save hundreds — a friend flies free on every booking for the rest of the qualifying year plus the next.
