Even though I'm lucky enough to do business travel I'm not anywhere near as luxorious as the OP. Though I do drive a Pontiac!
Here's an inglorious review of my trips this year.
January:
Destination: Westlake Village, CA
Flights: 2x UA CRJs - All Coach
Car: Chrysler Pacifica
Lodgings: Local hotel in Thousand Oaks with one pillow per bed and no conditioner in the shower.
March
Destination: Pleasanton, CA
Flights: 1x US 319, 1x DL CRJ, 1x M90 - All Coach
Car: None, took BART
Lodgings: The ancient Sheraton Pleasanton which had earplugs on my bed due to the nearby freeway.
April
Destination: Tupelo, MS (exotic eh?)
Flights: 1x NW 757, 1x NW D95, 2X NW SF3, 1x NW E75 - All Coach...it took 16 hours to go PHX-TUP via DTW and MEM
Car: None, driven around in 15 passenger van by company
Lodgings: The Holiday Inn Express Tupelo
June
Destination: Palatine, IL
Flights: 1x AA S80, 1x UA 777, 1x UA 320 - Two in First! Finally! One Coach
Car: Dodge Grand Caravan which got a flat tire

I hope to end up like the OP, but I'm keeping my Pontiac.
