EXP: Highest Avg. Segment
To break up the monotony of “COVID sucks” and “airline service is limited“, I propose something lighter.
This applies for last or this year; though, given most don’t have access to last year’s data, I suspect we’ll mainly discuss this year. What’s you’re average segment length?
I’ll start (this year):
49,572 miles / 27 segments = 1,836 m/s
Most of my flights are booked in Y so it’s largely accurate. I have some paid J, but also booked carriers that credit ~1/2, e.g. Royal Jordanian, so I’ll assume it balances out.
Anyone else?

Only one trip MIA-LAS since March, and I'm at 55,699 EQM and 24 segments = 2320EQM/Segment. A couple MIA-LHR and MIA-GRU in premium economy really boost that average!
Have one more paid trip in Dec to requalify for EXP, another MIA-LAS in (paid) F.

I’m at 122,565 EQM on 25 segments, an average of 4,900 EQM/segment. I’m guessing my 2018 and 2019 averages were higher, as I didn’t have as many domestic segments.
