To be honest, it has all spiralled a little out of control... it only went to the Sunday Post (a pretty small Scottish weekly) as I was chatting with the journalist who is a friend of a friend (and I did tell him how great FlyerTalk is!) Its been picked up (seemingly copied and pasted ) by some of the other papers. From what I have learned in the last two days about the media, if anyone is doing the LAX-PTY run and wants to talk about it, there are lots of people who would be interested!
Curious to hear what kind of spike in blog traffic you have seen from all the press.

You must have found it rather annoying that it comes across as collecting Avios rather than those precious Tier Points.
