But Southwest calculates the points needed by multiplying the base fare (not the total fare) by 70. That means that on a points booking, you are NOT being charged for all of the additional taxes and fees (except for the security fee of $2.50). The points needed for this booking are $72.56 x 70 = 5,079 Southwest points. But youâre getting a value of $89 â $2.50 = $86.50 for the fare. And ($86.50 cost of flight / 5,079 Southwest points) = ~1.7 cents per point! So Southwest points are still worth more than the advertised value of ~1.43 cents per point!
