Sarah in SC mentioned the Southwest Airlines companion pass. Ours just expired, and it is by far the best deal for domestic air travelers.
Considering that you can usually travel on SW for just a fraction of the miles of a legacy airline, and that the process of collecting a Companion Pass gives you 110,000 miles, you shouldn't be paying anything for SW flights, other than the fees.
I'm still working for the MAN, so we only used the Companion Pass 6 times or so in 2013 and 2014, but it saved us well over $1000, not to mention the other free flights for our kids. Too bad they stopped flying to Key West...that was a fun vacation.
