How to Calculate Trip Miles

Travelers calculate trip miles for several reasons. Some want to know how many miles they're earning on their frequent flyer miles account and others want to know how many miles they're driving on vacation. Calculating road trip miles on a map is tricky. Trip miles for both flights and road trips are easily calculated and you can do it yourself from the comfort of your own home and computer.
