AAirpass and American Airlines
May 9, 2012 on 1:00 pm | In Airline News | 1 CommentThe Los Angeles Times has this story about American Airlines actively prosecuting its AAirpass holders for fraud. Purchasers of the AAirpass essentially paid big sums of money for an unlimited, lifetime first class pass and many bought them in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They actually made financial sense for some and some purchasers used them in ways that American Airlines never conceived of.
Personal note: When playing the “what if” game on what one would do if one won the lottery, I always said that I would want an Airpass first above all other things.
