I'm not even sure if I'm going the idea seems kind of weird. I'm not sure if I really want to meet the point chasing freaks like myself.
Lol, this is what I love about the internet. A bunch of gay dudes finding ways to make out with each other without actually touching. It's a testament to the inner workings of each man and his need to act out his innate desires (in this case, anal sex).
Sometimes I go over to flyertalk to see how the poors live. It must suck to have to fly commercial so much.
I've taken advantage of several flight deals that I've come across on the Flyertalk forums, including: Houston to Lahore, Pakistan: $497 roundtrip, taxes included. Orlando to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: $387, roundtrip, taxes included. This deal was particularly great, because I was able to use my global upgrade certificates on American Airlines and upgrade to business class both ways, all for $387. The beauty of these fares is that they're not only extremely cheap, but you also accrue all of the mileage flown. And if you have top-tier status with the airline, the redeemable miles you receive are x2. So for the Pakistan trip, I received nearly 40,000 miles from a $497 fare. To put this in perspective, a free roundtrip ticket from Houston to Alaska is 25,000 miles. Houston to Tokyo roundtrip would cost you 32,500 miles for a free ticket.
That is pretty sweet. So essentially for $500 you have a ticket to Pakistan and Japan?? Can't beat that
There is another one next Friday 7/12 at Goode Co. BBQ at 6 pm http://first2board.com/giddyforpoints/houston-bbq-meetup/
