Flt 22 LAX-JFK
Flt 25 JFK-LAX

Sometimes I hop a different time slot for the same legs, but those two stand out.

OP, you read my mind! I was about to post this, albeit in TravelBuzz.

Only 2 segments in double digits:
ORD-LGA x 13
LGA-ORD x 12

These account for nearly half of my 52 segments this year.

EDIT:
Non-UA flights: DL x 4; US x3; AC x 1; CO x 2
Longest flight: IAH-HNL (12/24 on CO)
Shortest flights: ATL-CLT (227 miles) on US; CVG-ORD (264 miles) on UA

UA686 (ORD-LGA) and UA693 (LGA-ORD) x 5 each

My most common flight was IAD-SFO and vice versa, but I managed to not fly on the same flight twice this year.

According to Flight Memory....

Most common route: LAX-SFO (17x), followed closely (you guessed it) by SFO-LAX (16x). Usually morning flights to LAX and evening flights to SFO. Flight numbers have varied.

Most common flight number: UA 179, BOS-SFO (8x in 2009).

Longest flight: UA 900, SFO-FRA

Shortest flights: 2x RT between ORD-DTW

# of non-UA flights: 1

# of non-*A flights: 0

As was the case in 2008, most of my legs were on the ORD-LAX route... usually Monday mornings ORD-LAX and Thursday Redeye LAX-ORD (religiously in seats 5 E/F for the behind the seat storage on 767) or Friday LAX-ORD early afternoon flights.

Of the 30 ORD-LAX RT's I've done this year, 7 were UA 12 ORD-LAX 6 were UA 843 LAX-ORD... the rest scattered.

Last year it was weekly 6AM on Monday, 11PM Thursday return Feb-Oct. This year it was only weekly Apr-May and Oct-Nov. The sad thing is that of the "regulars" I saw on my flights in 2008 two of them were still jetting that route in late 2009. I'm happy I was able to stay in Chicago for a bit of 2009, hope you guys get to in 2010!

Related, but probably suited for new thread: frequenting the ORD-LAX route is great for celeb sightings, and even better when you're in F and they're in Y!

SFO-BUR or SFO-LAX and back were the most common for me. Usually twice a week (well, down and back each week haha). Definitely not a big mileage gainer but thanks to DEQS I did make 1K for the first time. Woohoo!

As far as flight numbers are concerned, I flew DL1909 (DEN-ATL on Delta) 4 times this year. On United, I have 6 flight numbers I have flown twice each. This is out of 54 flights on Delta Air Lines and 87 flights on United Airlines for the year 2009.

If you are talking routes, I have flown DEN-ATL 12 times (10 DL/2 UA). Purely on United, I did DEN-ORD 8 times.

Perhaps the returns were scattered amongst various XXX-HNL? A couple SFO, a couple DEN, etc.

Like other COS based flyers, its hard to have COS-DEN not be at the top of the list. So top three in order...

COS-DEN
OGG-DEN
DEN-ORD (first year that DEN-ORD didn't come in a close second to COS-DEN).

Emphasis mine. Of the mainland-based 1Ks, you might be the one who is most happy about UDU.

ORD-DEN and DEN-ORD

About 9% of my 120k flown miles were on this route in 2009.

COS-DEN on ~26 of a total of ~65 BIS segments this year...

As COSPILOT noted upthread, being based in COS adds a leg to connect thru DEN on almost every itin...thanks to DEQS, and to UA generously looking forward to booked itins, I've just made 1K (at 98.5 total segments posted and 5 to go) ... thanks for the early Christmas gift UA!

cheers!
