Lucky Passenger Flew On United Airlines 23 Million Times, For Free

In 1990, Tom Stuker bought a United Airlines lifetime pass. He has since flown 23 million miles and redeemed countless miles.

Stuker — a car dealership consultant from New Jersey — has flown 23 million miles, which, according to The Washington Post, is more miles than any individual in history.

Now, 33 years later, Stuker frequently enjoys his favored perch in seat 1B.

Stuker, now 69 years old, told the newspaper that the accumulation of airline miles drove his frequent travels.

“Best investment of my life,” he said.

He told The Post he once used miles to obtain so many gift cards that he could renovate his brother’s home.
