Happy New Year everyone. Last year, shall we say, did not go as planned. But hey, at least I wasn’t shut out, and I squeaked past 10,000 miles on the year. We’ll call it a victory, and I’ll just have to hope I can do better in the back half of this year.

Miles: 10,041 (33,378 last year) – fewest since I started tracking in 1994

I’ll leave you with this fun fact. I flew on nothing but widebodies this year. I’m pretty sure that’s never happened before.

      Yes, I managed to have unique routes on every single flight.

      Miles: 15,924 (52,401 last year)
      Segments: 10 (29 last year)
      New aircraft: 767-400ER, A330-300
      New airline: Air Canada
      New airports: YYZ, YUL
      Aircraft: 321, 764, 738 (2 segments), 319, E90, 333, CR7 (1 segment)
      Airlines: DL (4 segments), AA (3 segments), AC (2 segments), WN (1 segment)

      This was the first year since I started hopping on planes in 2007 that I haven’t touched DEN, and if I had to guess the lowest segment count since 2008, and the lowest mile count since 2010.. though 2012 might have been close.

      Hope the coming year is better, though I wouldn’t be surprised if I flew less in 2021 than in 2020.

    Didn’t get to do most of what I planned to this year, but I moved to HKG and started an interesting job in the airport so at least I’m not missing being in terminals and around planes. Since coming here in July I have had zero flights and looks like I won’t have any for some time considering I’d face a 21 day hotel quarantine upon returning while the policies continue to get stricter and stricter.

    Have about a gagillion dollars lined up with Delta. Not only do I have 2 or 3 work trips canceled, I felt like splurging on a vacation in 2020 and bought (Miles and Cash), the new Delta One Suites on the 777 to CDG. Yeah, that didn’t happen and won’t on the 777.

    Happy New Year!

    2020 Miles: 0!

    But, 2020 wasn’t a complete zero. I see DOT has gotten around to issuing its final rule “codifying its longstanding definitions for the terms “unfair” and “deceptive.”” And, the rule actually says: “Proof of intent is not necessary to establish unfairness or deception.”

    Unfortunately, all of this seems to relate only to DOT carrying out rulemakings. Not sure how any consumer, airline customer, or traveler can use the “unfair” definition to convince DOT that a particular airline practice, however idiotic, lacking in common sense, etc. you may find it is, is “unfair.” There still appears to be multiple hoops to jump through. to get DOT to act on anything.

    Sorry! One day into the year and I’m off into another rant!

      It’s a route from one point to/from another point but in either direction so, it’s A –> B and B –> A combined. Or A B.

After having to request cash compensation -we weren’t offered our legal rights- instead of a Voucher, we got rebookend on an ORD-LGA flight late that evening (there were no remaining flights with seats) taking the train into Chicago to the ‘L’ into a snowstorm, with our flight after 90 minutes of snow removal and deicing miraculously chosen as one to make it out that night.

    I had so many aspirations for amazing travel at the start of 2020 only to be disappointed with the least amount of flying of any year in my entire life (including when I was still a baby in diapers). Only recorded one trip in February before flying got challenging with all of the onerous restrictions.
