I know pilots keep their mileage when they deadhead on AA, Delta, etc so is there any good options as far as credit cards go to maximize those miles? American and US airways are offering 50,000 bonus miles to new members right now. I'm thinking about applying for both and having those miles merge whenever they merge the credit card points.
Atlas employees get ID90's for themselves, spouse, kids and parents....on JetBlue, USAirways,Delta and Southwest. There is a system in place now that you can check the loads online and buy an ID90 up to an hour prior to the flight. I don't know why but HQ hasn't really been very quick to advertise this. I found out from a crewmember that flew his family to Japan.
