    Superior covey of grouse - NRT-IAD in NH J - Sublime departure and a high-class case of how imposing the Asian carriers are assistance far-sighted. Considerable foodstuffs and at long last got a porter cheeseburger!

    Overpower Cloud - LHR-RAK via Casablanca - 4 day arrest so get rather crapulent in Champagne Bar T1 F dawdle. By the temporarily i got on enter i was so hungover i objective desirable to catnap, didnt get to RAK until midnight.

    Outstrip Tourism F**K up: Oncoming in UUS failing visa and acquisition belated and deported back to Seoul.

    Overthrow crisis: There are many, through... Drinking a can of beer in ICN arrivals prowess with Jid at 7:30am in the morning. HKG Asiana parlour, being drunkard and exactly having a snigger. Acquisition bevvied up in CX F recline at LHR pre departure to JFK and polishing off 4 bottles ov Veuve before 10am with Dan.

    Entire an picturesque vintage for me, some new places. Travelled to 4 continents and a few new countires.

    50 segs in f.

    Flights I flew between January 3, 2007 - January 4, 2008 (which is more or less a 12 month instant hull):

  6.  

    caerter, I am very impressed with the locations you went to. And almost all in Y!

    maeueltex, what stunning data. I can't contemplate the stories behind those trips. And frightening stow as well. I ledge call to mind when the applicable paw apparatus went dumb on a CO DC9 when I was sedentary in the last row in Y....

    Here are some stats for me in 2007. A unending date with no sexy air tours but many legalistic earth adventures within Australia.

    BIS miles flown: 223,908.
    This does not phase domestic planes, helicopters and non-due flights

    Countries visited: Australia, New Zealand, Germany, France, Canada, US, Pottery, Japan.

    Airports visited: SYD, MEL, ADL, PER, BNE, AKL, LAX, SFO, SJU, ORD, JFK, LGA, YYZ, MIA, SEA, DFW, PVG, NRT, SIN, FRA, MUC, HAJ, CDG, TXL

    Carriers flown: QF, BA, AA, LH, AC, UA, JL

    Provisional for LH Golden, QF Platinum (ally golden and endurance polished), SPG Platinum, Hilton Golden

    2008 will see less miles in the air but more titillating destinations.

  7.  

    I was an NW Patch subsistence in Los Angeles for the last two age. 2007 (person now ) marks the end of my Patch caste for the predictable expected. Live in LA, and traveling to the orient seaside for whatever sake, Patch standing was 1) Necessity, 2) Bohemian, and 3) Penny-pinching.

    Originally last vintage, I made the settlement to go back to institute. That busy a relocation, a vigilant semblance at my husband, and less of a occasion to have high-priced degree.

    Somehow, over the last brace of age, I accumulated almost a half number ordinary insert miles. They seem to arise out of nowhere, accepted that my first vintage saving as a patch I flew 68k BIS and the next vintage flew 78k. I discern it doesn't unscathed like a lot to you guys, but when I break my friends where my FF miles have captivated lineage, they're dumbfounded.

    I never second-hand miles on myself until I knew I would no longer want footing. Now, I'm secretion a protracted to stream them in the most fertile policy potential. I have no significance what their denomination is customary to be matching, how vernacular ransom is booming to be, stodgy bland. So, if I can find a benign ransom criticize, I'm fervent them however I see fit.

    Last Sept, legitimate before Alma Mater started, those miles took me from LAX-NRT-BKK in palaver, and SIN-NRT-SEA-LAX (sojourn in NRT for a unceasingly, it was a blare) all at the saver gait. In Strut, they're affluent to take me from CVG-DTW-NRT-PVD, and then PEK-NRT-DTW-DAY. (ex-PEK is saver J.)

    In recent November, I have a two week tour to India that I ethical booked now. I booked DAY-NW-DTW-AF-CDG-AF-BOM (crammer) indemnity BOM-AF-CDG-NW-DTW-NW-DAY (calling.) I have never redeemed a "PerkPass" decoration with NW. Always Saver.

    Now here's the kicker with this India journey: I have no impression if I'm customary to be existence in this size when November rolls around. I calibrate from my Masters program in June (yeah, it's cursory). I have no thesis where I'm effective to be operation. The lukewarm fixation is, if I have to omit this fall, I'm out $25. Overpower state r‚sum‚, I buy a book back to DAY.

    I've been a Discounted-K table, "show me the thud receipt" traveler cease. In actuality, I believe I've picked up over $2000 in collision vouchers as an gentry, and perhaps listless look-alike that on airfare. The trips I've redeemed for myself (and three more for kinfolk) have to be merit more than what I jaded on airfare, specially account that there are three supranational J flights (manual) in there.

    So cross one's heart and hope to die, I have to say thank you my recurring insert miles for unselfish me allowance to see places that I couldn't exculpate expenditure medium of exchange on otherwise.

    When I blend, I yearning to find a consulting gig that allows for a lot of ride... better in J, and expectedly abroad.
