What it's like to live at 30,000 ft
Airports are easy
How to fly
One foot on the ground, one foot in the sky
V1
Move about the cabin
I love to fly
Smooth air
Slipping the surly bonds of earth
Danced the skies
Jetfuel is my coffee
A quarter of the way to the sun

some of these are GREAT, I would update this one to be “you’re now free to move about the cabin”.. or “free to move about the cabin”
something about doing this all on UA metal though makes me think that a more UA specific name would be appropriate.
Rolling triple sevens.. rolling triple 777’s
Rhapsody in Blue & White
Rhapsody at 35000 ft
come Fly with me
Do you want to take a flight?
From OZ to EZE - and back again. - with the sub line, a frequent fliers tale
This is a fun exercise!

There was a preflight photo,(that I initiated) and an announcement about 20 minutes into the flight. Other than that it was just another million.

This is the longest stretch between millions( pandemic). Finally 23 million, a very important number as it will be explained in the book. Yes the book. Now that I’ve hit this number, my next step is to finally apply to Guinness to make the world record official. Once that is finished, than comes the conclusion of the book. I do have a few titles in mind , but would love any suggestions from my fellow flyertalkers! And if you are in the Chicago Polaris tonight , London Tuesday morning, Newark Tuesday afternoon, SFO Tuesday night, Melbourne Thursday morning, SFO Thursday morning, London Friday morning, let’s catch up. I’d love to hear your stories!!!
Book title suggestion: On the Fly
