The reason is that airlines typically fold key revenue and cost figures for the programs into the results for the company overall and bury other program-related stats in the footnotes of their annual reports.
Myth 3: If all frequent flyer program members decided to cash in their miles for awards, the flood of non-paying passengers would overwhelm the airlines and drive them into bankruptcy or worse.
