Oh what I would do with 36 segments!!
But I think your arithmetic is faulty. Let's see:
- 6 in NAM
- 4 in SAM
- 4 in Europe/Middle east
- 4 in Africa
- 4 in Asia
- 4 in SWP
- 10 extra purchased segments (2 in each continent, except continent of origin IIRC)
- 6 inter-continental flights
- 3 extra inter-continental flights (for 2nd visits to northern hemisphere continents - where 2nd visits allowed to all three continents back then?)
Grand total = 45 segments ??!!
I wonder who got the most segments? Perhaps we need a separate thread where people can brag

(I can't brag - my max is 17, which only happened due to a schedule change)
