I found my moms old Worldpass guide from November 1990. Complete with Award chart, and after talking to my dad he said you had to earn a minimum amount of miles a year or you lost all your miles, judging by my mom's balance of 7000 this was correct. They offered bonuses for nearly everything, a plethera of flights, buying duty free, hotels, car rental, joining the clipper club (gets you 10,000, 15,000 if your Elite), taking the water shuttle between the LGA Marine Air Terminal and New York City and more. I'm not sure if my dad's info is correct.
