Red face Am I Crazy? (Most Time Inflight within 80-hour Period?)
As a result of a desire to take advantage of these two offers and questionable planning on my part, I'm now flying this itinerary over a 3-week period:

SFO-YYZ-FRA-JNB-CPT-JNB-FRA-YYZ-SFO-EWR-IAD-VIE-HKG-VIE-IAD-SFO

While 49,720 miles / 15 segments within over a 3-week period probably doesn't set any records on FT, I'm curious if the 25,039 miles / 8 segments (highlighted in bold) I'm scheduled to fly consecutively — as in, not leaving the airport — over an ~80-hour period counts as anything particularly insane amongst this community. A rough tally suggests that total time inflight over this period will be 53 hours and 18 minutes.

As a side note, these 8 segments are booked on 4 separate itineraries. Am I tempting fate here?

[EDIT: Due to popular demand, I started a pseudo-TR here to document this trip.]
