As an intruder from the other side (*), I have travelled on:
QF (heaps and heaps and heaps)
CP (1984 YVR-SFO)
BA (ca.1990 SYD-BNE during the strikes)
That's really quite pathetic when I think about it. But I am a * man, so what more could you expect of me?

QF - many, many flights
AA - five or six times, and enjoyed immensely
BA - four or five times, have not had a pleasant experience yet
CX - about ten times, have loved every single flight
CP (former ow) - twice
IB - once, never again given the choice
Am yet to fly the remaining three, but hopefully they will be around (particularly EI) by the time I get to.

Heh. Welcome home, Umich. If it makes you feel better, I have *always* gotten harassed going out of Santiago. The border patrol is either really anal or really good, depending on your perspective. Mine is the latter, since I would want them to be more careful than less careful. But on the trip with you, I was hassled when they took my ticket at the gate while you were down with the immigration people. The guy started questioning the number of stamps in my passport and asked how I afforded to travel.

Re Guy Betsy's comment in the second post in this thread: I reached all six continents with only AA (N/S America, Europe), BA (Africa, from Europe; also Europe again on the return)and QF (Australia and Asia, a round trip between the two, having reached Asia on NW). Those are also the only ones I've flown to date, though I expect that to change next year.
To make it even more fun, I completed the Six Continents entirely on weekends in July! (Fortunately, there was a four-day holiday weekend that month.)
