Talk:AAirpass

August 2019
This can't possibly be correct:

During the more than 10 years Rothstein owned the pass, he traveled more than 10 million miles, accumulated over 40 million frequent flier miles (all of which he gave away), made more than 500 trips to England alone and cost the airline more than $21 million according to them.

Googling says that's order(s) of magnitude off. Commercial airline pilots are legally limited to 1000 hours in the air per year, which would be only about half of what you'd need to cover that much distance in that much time. And 500 trips to England, presumably from Chicago, would have the guy flying an average of once per week across the Atlantic. Even if you chop those numbers in half saying you were double counting to account for his guest passengers, it's still not feasible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrianDeacon (talk • contribs) 19:37, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
 * The numbers are extreme, but not impossible, especially when you're talking about unlimited air travel. That being said, I'm having trouble sourcing the specifics of the above excerpt, and the "citation needed" tag is months old, so maybe the sentence should be removed. I'm hesitant to be bold here, because the numbers are oddly specific...I feel like they must've come from somewhere, and I'm just not seeing it. Thoughts? Ditch &#8733;  05:44, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Please remove the unverifiable numbers. 73.6% of all statistics are made up. --50.35.241.144 (talk) 23:38, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
