Natalie cannot earn any miles on her trips for Cal. They told her about this rule when she started there 3 years ago. They buy tickets on scheduled carriers, as there aren't enough swimmers to charter a plane (let alone have it be cost effective).

Only a handful of swimmers graduate and make income off swimming (prize money or endorsement deals).

Would be nice if they could keep the miles for all the time they invest in practices and meets.
