I would be loyal to airlines, but they have had NO loyalty to me. In 2002 United was talking a merger with USAirways, a major airline in Philadelphia. I had 63,000 miles with United and many miles with USAirways. The way they were talking about the merger it was like they were one airline. So when I flew on USAirways I was thinking that I was being loyal to United as well. Well, in 2002 United took away my 63,000 miles supposedly for inactivity!! I explained to United that it was advertising and acting like United and USAirways were acting like they were already one airline so my activity with USAirways should count as activity on United. I was hot, no amount of phone calls, emails, and letters would get my miles back. I have not flown United since. I have flown a lot of miles since 2002 and United has missed out. I am sure that many people have benefitted from frequent flyer miles, but I am not one of them.
