How many airpoints do you need ?

The bank interchange is being reduced so the earnings on the airpoints cards could well be substantially reduced.

So say twenty years of upgrades
Say 4 trips per year so 8 upgrades @ 990 airpoints by twenty years by two as you are taking a partner.
You need need about 320,000 airpoints at $1 each = $320,000
Allow taking your whole family and friends too ...make it a round million...

There are 100,000 elite members who have kiwibank cards so possible $100,000,000,000 of points could be purchased ?
