Are you the Ultimate Frequent Flyer?

10M Miles last year?? Fly Just to earn Miles? Apply for Credit Cards to get points and bolt? Always looking for "free miles"?? Hotel Stays, etc...

I am looking to interview people who feel that they are the Ultimate Frequent Flyers/Loyalty Program exploiters?

I want to hear about how good you are at racking up miles, status, ect. Contact me by direct message to talk.

Thanks

Well, I don't normally toot my own horn, but the wife and I did each accumulate one hundred (100) points each in the Best Western Facebook giveaway! In fact, I got an extra one hundred points for referring my wife, so I am only 105,700 points from getting that 32" LG TV that I could pickup for $200 in another week. So I suspect I'm just the guy you are looking to talk to. I'd love to help with the early demise of some great travel deals so that you can write some [likely stilted] article.

Or, I don't know, perhaps you could actually read some of the stuff on this site, and others, and learn for yourself. When I went to school that was called 'research.' Not sure if it has a different name now. Anyway, give me a call if you want to chat.

Good sluething

LOL - yes, you have found me.

No, not a mole.

Just want to get a couple interviews about how people got started, how much you make each year doing it, etc.

Got one PM back showing some pretty good results from one guy.

Looking for the "King" of free mileage. Who is the best?

All in good fun, and yes, would eventually like to write about it.

Cheers,

PC

- Good luck! I don't think this is appropriate forum unless you will be giving miles for the interview.

Thank you. If you know of any "Epic" Mile-agers, feel free to fwd any threads my way where they discribed.

My apologies. Which forum would be appropriate? I thought this was more of a general forum. Re-reading, looks like "Travelbuzz is a better fit".

Thanks guys.

We're open to those that contribute to help others. Read, watch, and contribute, no short cuts. Exposure helps no one here. I think this looks like you just want to use the people to?

The people here who really know their stuff and give the airline revenue management sleepless nights are not about to share any of it.

You might get first level/atrium courtesy from newbie FT readers but as for the seventh level, the Forbidden City, forget it.

Begin with basics of the legends that are publicly available and widely known to historians of the MR...like Mark Tacchi's Great Canadian Mileage run.

Exploiters? Why we are merely misunderstood capitalists who deserve to profit as much as Bank of America. Maybe even more.
