The original article was about credit cards and banks. It was only about travel in the loosest sense - the connection through miles/points that credit card rewards programs generate.

AAdvantage was my first program. The flight attendants would hand out cards for it, you'd fill them out on the plane and give them back to the FA right there.
I had TWA and Southwest pretty early on too. Still have my original Southwest "Company Club" card somewhere at home...
