Funny that you had international upgrades on DL before you had domestic ones, as a Silver that has to be a really rare fact.

That's really cool that you recorded all your flights. I have no idea how many I've taken (my first one was SEA>ANC when I was <1 yo back in 1968). I've probably flown a few hundred, but who knows. I wish I recorded them all. It would have brought back great memories.

I'm not sure if I want to keep track of my flights or not. I guess I could go look in my Gmail account for all of my airline tickets since 2004, but.....eh. I dunno.

edit: That might be an interesting project on a night when I'm super bored. Hmmmm....

I don't remember my flights as a kid in the late 80s/early 90s when we would fly from California to Hawaii or Switzerland. But as a "traveling adult" I would say it was one of the first few UA 787 Dreamliner flights that they were traveling between the hubs. I specifically went from EWR to IAH because I wanted to fly on the 787. A few days before the flight out I got an automated call saying they changed the aircraft type blah blah...was pretty let down, but hey I saw some old friends in Houston and spent a crazy election night in the hotel lobby of the Icon Hotel. On the leg home when I got up to the gate I looked out the window and thought...well wait, THAT plane looks pretty spiffy....low and behold it was the 787!

Later this year I'll be on my first Global First flight, early next year my first trans-pacific flight and later on in the summer A380.
