Is this like a roll call? Okay, here goes...

2001 was specifically geared to be a year of personal travel & award point redemption (to clean out the account):


• 0 Q-miles earned
• 132,000 approx. Aeroplan miles accumulated
• 412,500 Aeroplan miles redeemed
• 16 Flight segs ~ all using J awards this year!
• 16 Star Alliance flights (12 AC, 2 NZ, 2 BD)
• 10 Airports (YVR, YYZ, YUL, ATL, LAX, LHR, EDI, GLA, SYD, PPT <== PPT was the cutest!)
• 9 Cruise ports
• 8 Countries (Canada, US, UK, French Polynesia, Samoa, New Zealand, Australia)
• 8 Aircraft types (I think)
• 2 Cruise ships
• Longest flight SYD-LAX 7509 miles
• Shortest flight LHR-EDI 330 miles
• Longest cruise PPT-SYD 4415 nautical miles
• Shortest cruise YVR-SFO ??? nautical miles
• 3 Airlines (NZ & BD first-time)
• 4 Business flights
• 12 Personal flights
• 0 MHD's
• 31 Nights away from home; 4 business, 27 personal
• Status = Married ; Aeroplan Status = Basic


A great year for an avid traveller with limited time & $$$ to travel for pleasure. I can't wait to make a SIN Run or ??? in 2002 to make up for missing out on the MHD's!

Happy & safe travels to everyone.

Cheers. Dogstar.
