Here's what I see as the bigger problem (though thankfully not for me):
LatinPass requires account activity (which does not include mileage redemption) every 36 months in order to avoid expiration of miles.
It will take a minimum of four calendar years to redeem 1,000,000 miles under this new regime.
I realize that a single car rental in 2003 could solve this problem, but it is still a problem.
