I used to believe that accruing miles was the thing that made me happy until .....
I booked the discounted fare to Europe and upgraded to 9 A&B for my daughter and me for Christmas time. To watch her skip through the house and say "I'm going to Paris and London (in Biz)on a 777" was worth every bit of the 100,000 miles it took.
Cheers,
I'll buy any FTer a pint in London/Paris Dec 15-23.
