Miles are for personal travel. Dollars are for business travel.
Ah, gotcha.


EJB - can we see biz travel and cost, too?  ::)

Biz travel is included. Most of the US trips are business travel. Cost, it would take me too much time to calculate that. My records aren't that good :)

Would be cool if the map could somehow show a route that you took more than 1x. I guess the listing below works for that.

Not surprising considering the frequency of your short hauls.

It's the BMI-ORD flight that did it to me. I timed that flight perfectly so that my Shallots was waiting for me outside ORD just as I made it off the plane and outside the secured area.
