I think the new program is great for business men who are traveling short distances, but for someone who has just gotten their 20,000 miles and was looking forward to traveling anywhere in the US. I was abit taken back when I found out that they has raised the amount of FFmiles from 20 to 30,000, for the same thing you use to get for 20,000 miles!!! I just about had a kitten. I'm told I can travel anywhere within 750 miles now for 15,000 FFB miles. Woopie! So where is the justice in that. I joined TWA FF miles and also have the EAB charge card, to the tune of a annual fee of $25.00 a year. I used that for everything we purchased. You will note that I said used. I am going to drop this like a hot rock. I know that TWA was the only one left that was giving free tickets for 20,000 miles, after all thats why I joined. I also found out that their are some flights that are not straight through. No one tells you this when you purchase the ticket. You have to figure this out by yourself, by means of the length og time it take to get you where you are going. My husband and I also found out by being on one of those unfortunate trips, when we were told of our stop off in Sarasota by the pilot as we were getting ready to leave. I think I have had about enough. Maybe I'll try thr friendly skies.
