If you've got time to kill, consider enrolling in Virgin's Flying Club and racking up the points pronto. If you collect two million of 'em, you get a free flight on Virgin's commercial space flights (Virgin Galactic)-to arrive in the near future.

Our favorite travel too-large-for-life personality Richard Branson makes it seems sooooo easy:

"We expect the first Virgin Galactic space flight to take place in 2008, which gives our Flying Club members time to save up all their miles," Branson added.

Of course, if you were to calculate it, that's 570 flights between New York and London. Get crackin' on that point collection folks.
