It is a little known fact that flying fish do in fact earn frequent flier points.
They can redeem them for valuable merchandise such as refrigerators, television sets, and the occasional computer. However on the whole the people who set up the redemption centers do not like to offer computers to fish, as (like snakes) they tend not to have arms, which reduce the number of hands they are likely to have. Do not however think that fish can not type; in fact they are intrepid typists, with fin and tail.
The biggest drawback that a fish has in using a computer is that they have memory capacity of about 20 seconds, while this is useful in a fish bowl, (“I think I’ll just swim around the fish bowl”. Right then, what should I do now, “I know I’ll just swim around the fish bowl”), when it come to the start up process necessary for computers, well a swim around the fish bowl is just easier.
Another point worthy of note about fish and computers is that most (read all) fish spend a good percentage of their time underwriter. While with the latest technology especially in lap (should I say fin) top computers, there is no problem in operating a computer under the sea. The very real lack of power outlets their means that even after a few hours of operation, (assuming the fish could turn the system on in the required 20 seconds), the batteries would go flat.
So, even though flying fish can and do earn frequent flier miles, they realistically have very little to trade them in on.
