Frequent Flyer Documentary

Frequent Flyer Documentary

You may remember Gabriel Leigh, a UC Berkeley graduate student who created a 20-minute documentary about frequent flyers as his master’s thesis. We interviewed him in the January 2010 issue of InsideFlyer. His original film, “Frequent Flyer”, has been viewed over 58,000 times and has been screened in around a dozen film festivals. If you haven’t viewed the film, you can see it at http://insideflyerus.wpengine.com/link/?6105 – Leigh recently raised over $15,000 in funding via kickstarter.com to begin making a feature-length version of “Frequent Flyer”. He plans to interview mileage fanatics and economists as well as some of the loyalty program executives who are running frequent flyer programs. Over 310 people invested in the project.
