How are Air Miles calculated?

Depending on the airline's rules, you may earn miles based on how far you travel or the flight cost. In most cases, you will earn a number of points per dollar spent or per mile flown. Travelers with elite status in the airline's loyalty program may earn more miles for each trip than other members.
