Now, 25 million miles earned by flying.. that's just 200k flown miles per year for 40 years with 100% bonus and 100% class of service bonus.
Of course we also know that frequent flyer programs weren't around 40 years ago.
Even over 20 years, that would be more than 400,000 flown miles per year earning double miles on all flights plus double miles as a class of service bonus on all flights.
Nope. I don't think these folks earned 25 million miles all by flying. Maybe they bought a whole lot of subscriptions to Inside Flyer.
