Average segment length
 

Hi,
Just saw my YTD totals for United Mileage Plus. 71810 miles in 14 segments. That makes it 5129 miles per segment. And boy does my butt feel it sometimes.

Anyone have a larger average segment mileage?

Older, but the same question:

Thanks, good read. Time to ask it again. I didn't see any in that particular thread with over 5000 miles/segment.

from my openflights so far for 2011:

overall:
50 segments
101555 miles

United:
14 segments
22355 miles

Lifetime United:
56 segments
108081 miles
so I guess an average of 1930 miles/UA segment

Right now I'm at about 4000, with 67,300 / 17 segments. Mostly ORD-GRU (5252) with a few connecting through IAD and a family vacation or two to bring down the average.

Mine is smaller. :D

BIS (not counting reward tickets, excluding 500 mile min)
All *A: 579 mi, std. 289 mi
UA: 558 mi, std. 375 mi

Counting the 500 mile min:
All *A: 661 mi, std. of 201 mi
UA: 679 mi, std. of 277 mi

I'm not sure which is worse: your average segment length, or the year I qualified for US Chairmans Preferred on segments. 200 segments in a single year is no fun.

If you're really bored, covert your flight time into how much radiation you're received in units of chest x-rays. I'm at around 23 (~20% error) YTD.

I seem to have an average of 2551 for this year.

Last year, I had 5255, though. But only in the rather trivial sense that I only took two United flights last year.

k_jupiter: Out of curiosity, do you do your domestic US flying on another airline? Or are your domestic flights cancelled out with a bunch of 6000+ milers? Or do you just not fly domestically in the US at all?

890 - this may be my highest ever... Sad, eh?

105245 EQMs
93.5 EQS

Average = 1125

101,285 EQM
34 EQS
2979 avg

though, looking at another 15k EQM in the next two months with 6 more segments so that might lower my avg to 2900 avg.

Much more domestic this year than usual and bunch of LAX-SFO hops and connections on trans-cons.

Currently:

92,508 BIS (excluding EQM bonus)
60 Segments (excluding EQM bonus)
1,542 per segment

I feel for you....
 

That's a lot of waiting in airports. I wonder if you start to think of it as a horizontal elevator.

Have you found that your pressure equalization changed from all the take offs and landings? I use to have terrible problems when I flew 30 or 40 times a year in the 80's. Now I don't even use hard candy.
