@thetravelersbuddy: I booked a flight to Jeddah for the next 3 days and I did it only because I want to extend my frequent flyer status. What does it mean? It means that I couldn’t collect enough miles with the same airline to extend my flying status and now I need to collect some miles somehow for me to not lose it. Lose what? The perks of being a frequent flyer with Star Alliance: skip lines, access to lounges to eat before my flight and the best perk, free luggage. I love Jeddah, so I see it also more as a short trip to a place I like rather than an obligation. For those who are frequent flyers? Have you ever done a mile run and where did you go?
