26 EQS later, the main part of the run is over -- the remaining flights reflect planned travel.
I still haven't caught up on sleep yet (I don't think I got more than 5 hours any of those nights), but somehow all of this may have worked out despite:
- 3 cancelled flights
- 2 misconnections
- scoring a VDB
- snow falling in every city I visited except ATL
- getting way too used to the scent of de-icing fluid
Posted EQS as of 12/27:
94.5
Flown but not posted:
3.0
Ticketed but not flown:
3.0
Total EQS by 12/31:
100.5
I don't want to celebrate prematurely, but the remaining trips are ORD-DCA Thursday and DCA-BOS-PIT (on US) Friday, which should be relatively simple.
This was made possible thanks to the tips from FTers, rebooking help from the RCC agents, mother nature for the travel waivers, UA for this weekend running relatively smoothly, and a large swath of luck!
