I don't mileage run. I enjoy going places, even some of them are frequent destinations for me at this point. It's rather fun to be able to fly halfway across the world on a whim.

Overall, with status on both UA/AA, I've easily consumed $100k worth (at street prices) of seats this year without even dipping into the miles I've accumulated. I've paid a very small pittance of that, so paying a bit of attention to frequent flier programs offers a tremendous rebate opportunity.
