So did GUM on December 19th 2016 on my RTW itinerary and the UA154 Island Hopper. I have SJU booked for February 11/12th. So will have just SFB/PIE which can be done by using Allegiant out of CVG. ^

My goal is to always add more airports/airlines/aircraft to my portfolio, however I'd say my two "goals" would be:

1. Flying on a 747, any variant, any airline, any route/class of service.

2. Fly on every 737 variant (besides the -100). So far I need the -600 and -900, with the latter being easy to fulfill and the former being time/route/price critical.

This last weekend flew into and out of SJU - so that means I need just two out of the Top 100 US airports according to the latest FAA list. They are SFB and PIE both of which I think I can do out of CVG on Allegiant.

I am getting close to 200 airports lifetime total too.

If we're talking about IATA codes, then I'm missing Q, but QRO (Querétaro) should be added soon..

Alphabet completed! :D

And I should add that Querétaro is a beautiful city, away from the hustle and bustle of México DF.

My goal is to fly 1mm by 25. (currently 169k @ 20). On top of that, I want to fly the 747 before they are all gone.

That was my goal, but I said 1MM by 30. Ironically, it was the 4 years I spent in grad school studying and working in aviation that caused a HUGE flying dry spell for me.

Now, I work in a different industry and fly a lot more than before. Now I'm 30 and at 400K miles.

I have added Delta million miler to my goal. I am at 875000 so could get there by next June 2018

Only 30 from the original list. I have some ways to go, but surprised that I have even that many!

My only goal is to get where I am going with minimal fuss and delay. After more than 3 million lifetime miles flown across many airlines, I cannot even begin to imagine a scenario where checking off dreary airports or yet another different type of sardine can is even a consideration, let alone a goal. Sorry!

No need to apologize - life is good -we all have different things that float our boat. ^:)

My goals are always evolving but for now I'll settle for flying upon my 200th airline. So far I've logged flights aboard 192.
