Thats 0.015 $/mile and you can do a few of those each weekend with your HLE and not travel outside your county.
8000 for 410$ is 0.051 $/mile and you have to fly around. On US! In Y

Good idea, however I need to be older (19years old).
And car hire is expensive in Sweden..

How bad is US airways really? I recently flew AF from CDG to HKG in Y, 12h and kind of enjoyed it (movies, drinks all the time).
