I set many goals (though not the OP's), beyond just my goals related to individual frequent flier programs or to visit as many new places as possible:

-- Flying on as many different carriers as possible. Flying on every member of the three major alliances: currently 20/26 on Star, 13/17 on SkyTeam, and 6/11 on oneworld.

-- Flying on ever-longer flights: longest was IAD-DXB (7,069 miles) on UA til this year, when I did JFK-PVG (7,392 miles) on MU. I was about to take BKK-LAX until they cancelled that, so will have to pursue the holy grail, EWR-SIN, some day!

-- First Star Alliance RTW (in 2010); first Star Alliance RTW in C class (2011); next goal is for one in F class, then to try C RTWs on the other two alliances.

-- Flying on all carriers' A380s (in premium class): so far only EK and KE, with QF and TG scheduled soon.

-- I also have a few routes that I consider intriguing for whatever reason (like many frequent travelers, I guess, I gravitate to long-thin routes and fifth-freedom routes) and would like to fly: from LHR on NZ; long southern hemisphere routes, e.g., JNB-SYD; LHR-CPT (did that one last year); SIN-LAX and -EWR; IAH-AKL (forthcoming); SCL-IPC; LAX-PPT on AF; MUC-TAS (not sure of LH still runs that one on PrivatAir); a KL MD-11; YYZ-SCL; LIS-Africa on TP.

-- Also have a negative goal: to never fly longer than 4,342 miles (the
distance from ORD-FRA) in Y. So far, so good on that one.

Adds a bit of fun to travel planning (if one has no life).
