I have no other reason than it being fun to look at every so often.

I second flight memory, but I also have a "Passenger Flight Log Book." Actually, I am on log book number three. :D It is published by a Canadian company called Aviation World in Toronto.

I'm jealous! I used to save all tickets, but the last ten years or so a lot of the airlines (e.g., Southwest) take your ticket, and I have nothing to put in the folder. Also the airlines often don't give you a folder anymore. I probably have 98%+ of all of my tickets 1958-2005, then perhaps 70-80% since.
So the question is what is going to happen to all of those tickets? I'm afraid the answer is: The kids will throw them out (unless I do it first).:( I used to collect BP too, but now I just scan them from my all-in-one printer and save them as a JPEG file in my USB stick. Yeah, I'm a nerd :rolleyes: |

Here's what I do: I immediately re-print another copy of the boarding pass at the kiosk. So when they take one of the BPs, you still have another copy in your hand for your record-keeping.

What about the international ones? Do you scan the ticket stock stubs after you return?
|
Has anyone paid to get their data from the last 18 or 24 months, or would I be the only one crazy enough to do that?
|
How about using your emails from AA ? I usually try to permanently store everything at least somewhat meaningful.
|
Just ask
I have called the EXP desk in the past two years and asked for all my activity in the previous 12 months, and they sent me an email with all the flights in a text format, free of charge.

One suggestion I'd make is to migrate this to Excel, if it's in a table format. This will allow all of the data you currently have in separate columns, and also allow a wealth of calculations if you want to do that. I have mine dating back to 2004 (when I found out about FT and got serious about it) with all kinds of tracking done automatically.

For anyone else interested in this, I had done a search recently and came up with this thread. I wanted more specific info on it so I e-mailed AA...here's their response:
I'm very interested in this data to help my wife hit 1MM (I hit 1MM in about 3 years, so the 2 years of data would help provide some insight to me) and for curiosity on my traveling. Not sure if it's worth $75 though. |

(they are earning 75 :) ) |
cumulative AA mileage summary??
Have tried twice to see in the AA platinum desk has any ability to search for and print all program miles earned by a member. The answer I got both times was that they purge it after 3 yrs due to space constraints? Huh?! I get that that takes up probably terabytes of space, but any old data does. Memory is cheap!
With the many members here who have www.flightmemory.com data, are you all either very detailed and kept all that paper, or are savants and can remember that stuff? ;)I flew with AA starting in "86, and had many years of big miles in DFW & later STL. Has anyone had any success with getting them to get this data, or am I SOL? Thanks! |
Data has no value so why keep it that long. Current statements reflect program to date data.
