6 Rules for Frequent Flier Miles

http://money.cnn.com/2004/03/02/pf/bpva ... tm?cnn=yes

Heh - I always like reading articles like that from a US p.o.v.

Reward flights aren't my preferred method of using my miles (and probably won't be unless I start flying more than my ~4 US return trips per year) - I prefer to spend some cash and earn the miles on the flight while still burning some on an upgrade. But, from other people's posts, seems to me that VS have pretty good FC reward availability.

I reckon FC's a pretty good scheme, especially considering that we don't have a massive domestic market to tap up
