Hi FlyerTalkers,
I am an international college student currently studying in United States.
This is my first year in America, I have taken Korean Air one way flight from HKG-DTW in Aug 2014, and round trip from DTW-HKG in Dec 2014 and I have put all those miles in Delta Skymiles.
Usually I flight back home once or twice a year(summer break and winter break). It depends on how long the winter break will be.
P.S. I will also have U.S. domestic trips during Thanksgiving break and Spring break, and mostly one intra-Asia trip with family in the summer break.
Soon I am going to join an Europe trip in mid-may.
So the schedule is like DTW-HKG (stay home few days) then HKG-LHR LHR-HAM HAM-STR and take bus to Italy then VCE-LGW and stay London for two more weeks then LHR-HKG and HKG-DTW in the late August.
There is the upcoming itineraries:
DTW<->HKG in All Nippon Airways (Round trip)
HKG<->LHR in Singapore Airlines (Round trip)
LHR ->HAM in British Airways (One way)
HAM->STR in Air Berlin (One way)
VCE->LGW in British Airways (One way)
All are economy classes and I haven't put these miles in any program.
