I have 27,898,687 miles. And I drive a Trabi.

What's a Trabi?

You ever hear of Google?

Meanwhile, I have 33,489,209,298,123 Rut Dog points. My balance is so high because they are very hard to redeem.

Ahhh, that is what they call LatinPass/GlobalPass miles nowadays, eh?

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)

mile addict,
I must stand near the top of your list of respected FFers! I cashed in some OLD AA miles for a DREAM TRIP for the second year in a row in FC on CX LAX-HKG-BKK-HKG-LAX! It is the BEST service in the sky and I could NOT find a better way to use them.

EXACTLY! What good are mile balances if you dont use them... Having one of my dreams - flying Concorde - come true throught the help of FT... now that is what this "community" is all about.

[DR.EVIL] I have ONE thousand miles in my account [/DR.EVIL]

My balance is not so hot. I have an inner ear problem!

One ofthe saddest moments in my life so far. After jukin' and jivin', I got the magic 200K in my BA account. I booked the trip of a lifetime for September. When I hung up the phone, my balance was ... zero. Gone. Sob.

Big Lar,
Can you share how you spent your miles?? Just curious since I'm planning on doing the same.. thanks!

Sure, use them, but use them prudently. It's easy to spend miles, but relatively difficult to earn them. No point spending miles on a $125 RT on the US Air Shuttle, although I believe some FTer's (or good ol' Joe Brancatelli) would advocate such a thing in the name of keeping their mileage balances at reasonable levels.

From my viewpoint, the constraint to traveling is not miles, but time, or lack of time. If I had more free time, I would be able to use the almost 3MM airline miles (not including any hotel points) that I have.

I have 7 miles in one program and have no idea how I earned them (I do not use that airline).

Don't look a gift mile in the... mouth? Is it funner to earn or funner to burn? Is funner a word? Must be if I can type it.
