Reminds me of the guy who paid a million dollars for unlimited American Airlines flights for life. He racked up millions of miles and dollars in flights so they eventually found a way to cancel his service.

Because he let someone else use it to see a dying family member iirc, which was a breach of contract

Here's an article. It's because he booked under a false name a few times. He had unlimited flights for himself and a companion, it's beyond me why he didn't do everything in his power to not give American Airlines a reason to void his ticket.

Update: here's a really in-depth article written by his daughter that explains everything. Some of it was at American's suggestion!

I went down a rabbit hole. Welcome to my warren.
