[Fredslist] Military Person Airline Assistance? Miles? Thoughts

[Judie]

Good morning, Gotham,
A childhood friend, presently stationed in Japan for the later part of his 
career, has been trying to get back to the US to visit family (his 
Mom/sisters/daughter).  Tickets are very expensive (I've been told they are 
$3800+) which has prevented him from  traveling over the past year or so.

I've been looking to see if there is any program that may assist him in 
traveling home, not on standby.  Does anyone know of any "Miles for 
Military" type program that any organization has set up (I think I have an 
idea in the making :) ?  I've thought about setting up such a program where 
people can donate their extra travel miles to help those who serve our 
country.  I'd love anyone's thoughts if they have had experience in the 
same situation?

Also, a general question to all, do you think people would donate excess 
miles to help bring Bill/military persons home for a visit?  He needs to 
fly from Japan to DC or Boston.

Sincere thanks in advance for any input/comments.
Judie
