Last night, November 22, ABC news ran a story on Nightline about frequent flyers, mileage runs, credit card bonuses, etc. The story was recorded at a seminar that I attended in Chicago in late October.

I was one of the small group of people they interviewed, and I am glad to say I ended up in the story: you’ll see me just after the 3 minute mark talking about a mileage run to Frankfurt.

I am very happy with the way they prepared the story. I’ve found that when it comes to explaining mileage runs to people, they either get it or they don’t. Some people think it is an ingenious idea, while some, on the other hand, think we are our of our minds. I’m happy to say the folks at ABC News who did this story are in the first category.

The segment features Rick Ingersoll, the man behind The Frugal Travel Guy blog. Take time to visit his site, there is a lot of good information there. I hope to be as good at this as Rick is!

In case you missed the story or want to see it again, here it is.
