ua1flyer, congratulations on reaching this milestone! ^ I have checked my travel plans and it is likely that I will be on that flight as well, as I am in LAX for the previous two days and have a dinner in Chicago on the Sunday.

Hope to meet you on the plane.

Congratulation!
Although I would like to participate, my flight land at LAX at 5 pm on 9th.
It's pity that I really want to go but too late.
Anyway, you are amazing and have a good time!!

Congratulations Tom. Wish I could be there too, but unfortunately, I can't make it. Looking forward to reading about it and seeing pics.

Congratulations, Tom ^ I'm sure the party will go well, and I'm excited to see more photos from UA and the FTers that will be in attendance! I would love to be there, but am in Maine for the next eleven weeks..

Enjoy!

Congratulations! That's truly an accomplishment! I'm crossing 1mm bis on Tuesday, your tally certainly puts that in perspective. Since I do mostly domestic flying it's hard to imagine 9mm in 20 years.

I hope united truly does roll out the red carpet for you!

I am awed by this milestone. Congratulations.

My father worked his entire career as a pilot from the military through commercial up to 744's. At his retirement some 10 years ago, he had accumulated about 24,000 hours flight time.

By my math that STILL falls short of the 10M milestone! And it also spanned some 44 years of flying.

If you don't mind me asking, how many years has it taken you to reach the 10M point? Have you been with MP since it's inception?

All the best.

Tom I think it would be cool to have a link at the bottom of your posts that would take people to a Tom FAQ section as I know you get asked all these questions constantly. Maybe someone at FT can make this happen? I'm no IT guy that is for sure.
