FLYING AMERICANS HOME, AND REAPING BONUS MILES
"...Mr. Bethune said there was some internal concern that using a Continental plane might "ruin our relations with China"-especially when the company is seeking landing rights in Beijing." "But then we thought: 'These are our people; we are doing it. We don't care,'"he said. "It's an exhilarating feeling for me to have our airplane do it. Like any citizen, I'm proud to get our boys home."
