I had pass travel for 11 years at my last jobs. It was practically useless. You want to book a cruise or nice vacation and then sweat getting there or home. It made vacation less enjoyable.
Usually get enough miles to get a couple domestic round trips a year for me and the wife. Have the super duper credit card which gets me into the lounges. It also comes with a companion fare once a year.
Only departed once past midnight eastern time in the past year.
