Honestly these are not signs of honor. These are signs of lunacy. when I factor in AA (and 200k miles there) I am sitting well over 2MM miles in the air. I would bet maybe 500k of those miles were for fun trips that I will always remember.
If we assume an average speed of 500mph, 2 million miles is equivalent to 4,000 hours in the air. That's over five months of your life in the air. Or, if we take an average work week of 40 hours/week, two years of a full time job.
