I come here to reassure myself that despite everything my colleagues tell me I’m a lightweight frequent flyer.

next weekend is a mess of schedules though

Friday - LHR - JFK
Saturday -EWR - LAX
Sunday - LAX - PHX - LAX - EWR

and it honestly isn’t even for tier points (since I pretty much refuse to fly AA while their mechanic dispute is going on)

I’ve had a LCY-FRA-ORD-LAX-SFO-ICN-PVG-HKG-SYD-MEL-BNE-SIN-DXB-ZRH-LHR with an overnight in each city. Quite a lot of fun and not so tired actually

I got the chauffeured car at LHR - AA special services. Not a Jag though, Mercedes people carrier (first time for that service)
