No. From putting business material purchases on Amex.
Which is one way to do it. As I indicated above, there are other ways to accumulate points and miles, including credit card churning, manufactured spending, and buying groups.

I understand that most can't travel the way I do but there are those that can.
Anyone can consistently travel in biz if they want to and make it a hobby out of getting the miles and points that they need. I've "paid" for 11 roundtrip longhaul tickets in biz with miles and points in the last few years, and I have South Africa booked for two people for just after New Years.

Angels in the Outfield was one of the streaming movies last time I did this. I was all over that

Did 14.5 DFW to HK, so 8.5 is nothing. 8.5 is dinner at takeoff (depending on time), talking to your travel companion, then a movie. Get up and go stand in galley, sit down one more movie, go stand in galley, sit down and deal with last 90 mins or so.
Or sleep if you can.

1mg Xanax and a drink and I'm out like a light. A trip to San Fran I woke up and the people cleaning the plane were already on it.

When I get on a long flight I move my time to the time at my destination. If in business class I eat the meal with a couple of glasses of wine and take something to make me sleep. Jet lag can destroy a trip.

I watch a lot of movies on long hauls.

I just watched second season of Soprano’s on way to Italy. And first season plus Big Lebowski on the way home. Not a bad way to spend 18 hours.
