How a person travels (frequently impromptu) who uses no
special-affinity credit cards (that tie into retailers, hoteliers, etc.), keeps no priority accounts with hotel chains, does not accumulate airline
miles, nor qualifies for rebates or discounts, nor contributes to
add-a-dollar or round-it-up programs.
"When I travel I go where I want to go when I want to go. I
don't travel often, but when I do I pay standard fare or phone ahead. I
don't rack up hotel points, airline points, Amtrak points, cruise-
ship points, department store points, major-league team points, hotel/motel points, rent-a-
car points or charity points. I pay what I pay and if it's too much, I shop around or
don't go. Nobody needs to know my password or log-in, and I
don't get a dozen e-mails a week. I get bumps and privileges like you wouldn't believe. Nothing influences my choice of company or chain when I travel. That's called flying Priority None."
