American Airlines videogame

American Airlines is offering a chance to win a seven day vacation for playing an online game: Chair-iots of Fire.

A company has saved so much money by booking travel on the American Airlines website (choke) that it has lifted the ban on chair racing. You race through the office and pick up boarding passes, American Airlines emails, frequent flyer miles, and food.

Cute for certain but probably more trouble than it’s worth for the prize.
