Frequent flyers are people who do a great deal of traveling by air. They are often businesspeople who travel for work-related assignments. Some frequent flyers are people who enjoy traveling around the world, while some flyers travel to specific destinations such as Las Vegas on a regular basis. Frequent flyers earn benefits from frequent flyer mileage programs. Airlines reward loyal customers by giving them frequent flyer points based on the total number of miles they traveled with the airline. Customers can redeem these points for discounts on future travel. The value of frequent flyer points is estimated to be about two cents per mile. This can add up to substantial savings, as a transcontinental flight is a few thousand miles, and a frequent flyer will earn a great deal of mileage these trips.
