The "Frequent Flyer" Program
If you enroll in one of these programs with an airline, you can earn free
or discounted trips by accumulating a certain number of miles flown on
that airline. Below is the mileage required to earn you two round-trip
tickets, without restrictions, to anywhere in North America or Europe.
Some airlines have "partners"; therefore, passengers can gain mileage
on or use their free tickets to fly on a partner airline. They can also
earn mileage by staying in a partner hotel or by renting a car from a
partner car rental company. Ask your airline if it supports the Frequent
Flyer program.
