1-Million milestone on a Dreamliner

Boeing 787 Dreamliner, 1-Million at 2:05 a.m. Shanghai time on 11/12/13, flying from Shanghai to LAX.

Asked a flight attendant to pass a note to the flight deck asking for approximate coordinates on when we would be 2,892 into the flight, and came back with a "United North Pacific Plotting Chart" with date/names from flight deck, and signatures from almost all United personnel on board.

The route was highlighted, and circled where "it" happened, along with a note ... "Congratulations from your United 199 Crew! 1 Million Miles".

Flight deck also let the flight attendant know when we crossed, and she came and woke me. Wish I was coherent enough to take a pic of the travel map (seat back screen), but glad I at least noted the time.

About 95% of my miles are domestic, so it took many years, but finally made it.

Felt good to feel appreciated, even if for just a moment.
