satish_ny: Yes a lot of travelling, but take the last 7 days for example:
Saturday: Heathrow - Vancouver (240 points)
Monday: Vancouver - Heathrow (240 points)
Tuesday: Birmingham-Zurich (60 points)
Wednesday: Zurich - Birmingham (60 points)
Today: Birmingham-Frankfurt-Birmingham (60 points)
Tomorrow: Birmingham-Paris-Birmingham (60 points)
That is 720 points and a typical week. If you start adding in a few Concorde day returns, the magic 35,000 points becomes achievable.
For three years I commuted each week from London to Houston (in First), without any side-trips or US domestic on AA, that brings you pretty close to 20,000 points.
There are plenty of people out there who do that amount of travelling with BA.
