My travel hobby is getting a bit out of control, I guess. I'm trying to maximize RDM miles before Dec 31, when Delta goes to revenue based mileage accrual, which is meant to piss off cheap flyers like me
The goal is to bank 1,120,000 miles so Mrs Motion and I can have 2 round the world trips in Biz Elite. We'll take one each year for the next couple years. Planning on each being a 6-8 week experience. Also, to achieve Double Delta Diamond, which fattens me up for forthcoming years.
So, still to come this year. Trips to:
Miami
Manila, Philippines
Hong Kong
Gotenburg, Sweden
St Petersburg
Dubai
Bombay
Up till a week ago, I went a month without flying and that was real painful. But, Montana summers are pretty nice, and it was worth it.
Anyone else have a hopeless addition to flying and seeing new places? What's your airline of choice? Goals?
And, as a side note, I've met some really awesome Pelicans around the world doing this
I'm pretty damn lucky to have a wife who puts up with this stuff, too, I should add
