It's No Secret Auto Executives, especially high-ranking ones such as Larry Dominique, Nissan chief product planner for the U.S., travel a lot.

But there was an audible gasp from the audience at MBS when he revealed he travels to Japan “about 15” times per year and has accumulated 4.5 million frequent flyer miles.

“Me and Northwest Airlines have a good relationship,” Dominique tells attendees.

Later at a media lunch, he says his children are the beneficiaries, as well as their boyfriends, of his air-travel riches, cashing in the miles for free tickets.

Dominique doesn't say how often he gets to wave to the kids on his way to baggage claim.
