I've been flying on business very frequently since 1982. This is international and domestic.
The most I flew in one year was in 2002 (right after 9/11) and logged 104 flights. I can't start to tell you how many different ways to get searched by TSA (new to them then), or how close I came to be thrown in jail because I had someone else's boarding pass when going through security (thanks to the ticket counter agent).
I have a shoebox full of frequent flyer cards and rental car cards for companies that don't exist anymore.
I have enough hotel points to live in one for a month or two.
FF miles? I have lots and give them to family members (remember when you could sell them?)
So, when it comes time to go visit family or some other more pleasant vacation destination, we drive if it's in the U.S.
