Would stopping frequent flyer awards stop you flying

Sadly, no. I just use public transport ...

It would make no difference whatsoever for me.

I've never collected frequent flyer awards and the existence of these has never encouraged me to fly more often. On average I only fly long haul once every two years. And I only fly short haul on holiday once or twice a year.

Similarly, the existence of reward points at supermarkets has never encouraged me to buy more food nor visit the supermarket more often.

Would not having airmiles flights lessen flight frequency?

For us we fly at least two sets of long haul flights a year with BA airmiles plus companion voucher. It would cost more but we would still do the flying so I dont believe it would alter our flight pattern.

Wouldn't stop me flying, out kids live in a different country and I work globally.

The only difference would be I'd be less loyal to particular airlines, no less travel though
