From the article:
A London man has become the first person to exchange his frequent flier miles for a trip into space with Virgin Galactic.
Electrician Alan Watts said he flew to and from the United States on Virgin Atlantic flights more than 40 times in the past six years, earning him enough miles to take the trip into space with Virgin's space wing, London's The Sun newspaper reported Friday. The trip cost 2 million frequent flier miles, compared to the 90,000 miles required for a first-class flight from London to New York.
Does Expertflyer have fare buckets for Virgin Galactic yet?
