I've accumulated over 4 Million Frequent Flyers miles since the early 1980s when the programs began. I flew these miles over six (remaining) airlines, and am a Million Miler Man on Delta only. Usually, you don't have the luxury to be able to pile them up on a single airline because when you fly to a lot of different countries the airline service there might not work, or they may not even fly there. I've met guys on planes who have 5, 6, and 7 Million Miles. Franky, I don't want to ever have to fly 10 Million Miles. I flew 4 Million to keep my job. That's enough. It is very difficult to use them, but I'm trying. You can leave them to your spouse in your Will. And, since Award Status is determined annually, airlines quickly forget what you did for them last year when you drop off below the 100,000-mile level in any given year. Then, you're just another flyer.
