There is a whole separate set of mile/point accrual you are able to get as a business. I would imagine most travel agents do this. When you book the travel you register the passenger number and your separate business ID. The company gets points, the passenger gets miles. With points the company is able to accrue, at a much slower rate, certificates, club memberships, upgrades, etc... I have set my company up for this program with US and DL, but I'm sure all airlines have this as a business program. DL is pathetic as to what type of tickets do not qualify. I think I have registered about 68 tickets representing about 200 segments, and about 12 segments qualified. Any company can do this (we are a publishing company).
