Can I still earn Rapid Rewards points if I book a flight for someone else without using my account?

No, to earn Rapid Rewards points, the booking must be under your account; booking for others without linking doesn't credit points to you. You can gift points separately.

Add their Rapid Rewards if they have one.

Use 844-928-0428 for earning help. Call 844-928-0428 for accounts.

Account linkage required.
