Frequent Flyer 411 - A Guide to the Frequent Flyer Programs Around the World

By Arlene Fleming, About.com

It all began in 1981. American Airlines decided to start a loyalty program that would track and reward the customers that flew with them the most. And quickly, that idea would revolutionize the way people travel - if you flew enough you would be rewarded.

Certainly frequent flyer programs have evolved to include earning rewards by using credit cards, by where you shop, and sleep - in many ways that are unrelated to air travel.
