But what about me? This year most people my age (17) are out getting drunk at parties while I have flown 20 times, 18 on my own bill to maintain AAdvantage Platinum status.

Addicted to airline miles? Check out: Mileage Workshop --- "You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer." - Frank Zappa (1940-93)

d00t,
Well, I've always loved flying, I'm not really good at sports but I love going new places and meeting new people and just getting away from the monotanous, closed in life here so I go traveling.
I wouldn't know about Adrmials Club drinks as those aren't free so I'd never bother paying for one when I could get soda for free but I have been offered wine when flying Business or First. I declined both times.

I seem to always find the "issue," the what- if's, the loophole, the extenuating circumstance, the legal but shady-seeming (money order-esque) scheme, and the long-winded approach that has never lost a "complaint case" to any airline in my energetic history!
AND, also, I do many strange things and waste tons of my own and other's people's time on this stuff since the addition set in... The addition all started, oddly, from my OWN family experience with a loss on 911, of all things. You'd think I hate airlines! (I do but...)
But on the lighter, stranger side, how about the ability to properly caluclate exact mileage levels you might need in some flat program you belong to so you can bring them up to level and then use em, and not have to use or worry about those stray miles you have ever again?
I idined and did other things in some programs so that I had exact award levels like 25 or 35k, and then used the awards to have zero. Zero. Zero means bye bye.
why?
Why not. Because I could! To see what would happen. To not waste and to see how hard it was to do this and have THEM and ME keep on track at the same time (that was the hardest part for them!) Now I am NOT a member of some FFP's and I can start all over based on something we all should be using as the true gauge:
If they are NICE and have GOOD CS!
and good flying experiences!

If speed is not your thing, distance may as well be. Enjoy and embrace it all!
