Total flight miles for 2006

As 2006 draws to an close, i have tallied up the air miles that i have flown this year. Prior to 2006, i was averaging at least 120,000 miles a year for four consecutive years. The total flight miles for 2006 is 53,490 on 43 flights, less than half the average of the previous years. In comparison, i did 126,490 flight miles on 84 flights in 2005.

A direct consequence of this sharply reduced flight miles is that i won’t reach the Platinum elite status on Northwest for 2007. That sucks.

These are the cities that i have flown to this year: Boston (2x), Detroit (3x), San Jose (4x), Tokyo (2x), Hong Kong (3x), Fuzhou (China), Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru (Malaysia), Washington DC, Phoenix (7x), Portland and Seattle.
