Gcmap will not do it. Nor will the star alliance timetable. UA is sometimes different by. 1 or 2 miles.
I did this for my million milestone, bit it took some serious spreadsheet work and hunting UA to get it right
Happy to help if he wants to hit 2 with 8 zeroes.

We've been looking into both Seaborne and Crystal for our next cruise. Greatly appreciate if if you could PM me a bit more details on why one was better than the other.
Thank you!

You may have addressed this back on the thread, but how do you feel about UA eliminated GF? I assume you'll be treated just as well as before, but will being in the Polaris/BF cabin make flying UA a bit less attractive for you? (I'm guessing you're one of the few UA customers for whom the elimination of GF actually matters much . . . )

if you go Seabourn do the small ships. They built a mid size ship a year ago to compete with Crystal. That’s what we sailed on. Understaffed, food was like a high school cafeteria. Even the Seabourn loyalists were disappointed. I you go Seabourn, stay with the smaller ships until they figure it out. There is a reason Crystal was voted best cruise line 13 years or so......Best food,best service,best entertainment etc. Just did my 8th cruise with them. I will book 2 next year. They have the highest retention rate of all cruise lines. It costs more than most other cruise lines, but worth every penny!

Had an unbelievable summer traveling the world with my wife. Trips to Israel,Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Bangkok, and two cruises in August. Seaborne was a great disappointment ,but Crystal no doubt is the best cruise line to take. Flew back from Venice today, stopped in New Jersey long enough to repack and head back to Newark in time to catch the flight to SFO and on to Sydney tonight. I hit 2.5 million PQM tonight as well as pass 19,7 million BIS. 20 million is now within sight. I will update at 19.8. Need to figure out what route to take for my 20 million. Any ideas?

When the ship stops in MEL drinks on my deck overlooking the port !
Stay busy my friend

My deck might be bigger... and I’ll fire up the grill. Port Melbourne is a great community, luck to be here and watch the Spirit of Tazzy pull out each night. Can’t wait for some better weather to enjoy the views.
