i have found that most people actually fear the travel. they want to call a travel agent and have them take care of a flight then a cruise thent he flight back and they want a bus from the airport to the boat so they dont have to explore a new city.
People that play the milage games tend to be more adventerious want to fly some where and go from there. some are willing to buy cash (or coins) on a credit card just for miles and have them shipped ups. although there are some safeguards there is some risk involved if not actual monitary risk, there is the risk of time it will take to sort out problems.
plus most people would rather watch to find out who got voted of the island that actually goto an island
