Southwest Vacations, branded Getaways by Southwest, places fourth on value for Southwest flyers. Its home page offers up to $250 off select 5-night domestic packages and up to $500 off select 5-night international packages for two, and says two bags fly free, a $400 savings round trip. Each featured deal shows a per-guest price that includes estimated taxes and fees plus the Rapid Rewards points it earns. On November 13, 2026, a 3-night package at Riu Palace Costa Mujeres, an all-inclusive in Cancun, was listed from $621.49 per guest from Phoenix and earned from 5,794 points. You can book flight and hotel, add a car or book flight and car. The catch is coverage: packages follow Southwest's network, and the site notes a new Rapid Rewards program starts January 1, 2027. Read the bundle terms, since the savings apply to select packages only.
