Agreed.
This idea was originally floated in The Box so I'll throw it out here for whatever it's worth (which may not be much): North American Star Alliance Hub Tour, with a visit to Boeing.
Start in SEA and do Boeing, then do SEA - DEN - ORD - CLE - PHL - EWR - IAD - CLT - IAH - PHX - LAS - LAX - SFO. Overnight with activities at ORD, IAD, and LAS. Do it over a long weekend Friday - Monday or Saturday - Tuesday, something like that.
Edit: I forgot our Canadian friends, so throw some airports codes that begin with Y in there too. :-:
