Last year I lost 85,000 miles between an old AA account and my son's UA account. And it pissed me off. So this year I have accumulated 585,000 miles (so far) using credit card offers. You can make up that 150,000 in a few months by following Frugal Travel Guy's blog. Losing miles like this is a good incentive to start playing the credit card game with the airlines.
