Hi!
There is a Japan Contract guy out of ATL, that takes the $2K/month, uses some of it to buy a ticket, and then upgrades to Business Class with his miles.
So, if you live near the right hub, you can make money AND still have positive space Business Class.
Being gone about 20 days in a row IS an adjustment for most airline guys, but not for me. I would LOVE to get an interview.
