I don't claim to have invented anything, but did work out a summer of mileage runs for myself in 1988.

Flew 92 segments on 21 separate days over a period of six weeks.
A lot of it in First Class.

I then wrote an article titled "Confessions of a Professional Frequent Flyer", and submitted it to Randy. It was published in September 1988 edition of "FREQUENT" magazine.

A pdf of the article, plus a related story from WSJ,
can be found on my web site at the following address:
