YimSiam Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Air fare less then? I can't imagine it was, in real adjusted terms a ticket to fly to Asia and back must be much less now than in the past, no? Anyone got their old TG receipts from 1987 laying around? Domestic tix are through the floor low in comparison, I think - maybe international, too. I still wish I was standing around in Thailand with money in hand, whatever the year, whatever amount. Gettin' bored of same old work routine... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid just under $600 rt on NW airlines then, and 1 out of 4 flights free with mileage might be about the same adjusting for inflation now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Just about, except that the airlines have all started playing revenue management games that make it essentially impossible to get a flight ANYWHERE with miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
