Flights booked for 2006 (so far....)
TPA = Tampa
19-25JAN - TPA-DUB-TPA (Dublin) AA only
6-9FEB - TPA-LAS-TPA (Las Vegas) AA only
28FEB-1APR - TPA-GIG-MVD-EZE-SCL-IPC-LIM-TPA (Rio, Montevideo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Easter Island, Lima) AA, BA and LAN
9-15MAY - TPA-NRT-TPA (Tokyo) AA only
13-18JUN - TPA-NGO-TPA (Nagoya) AA and JL
Most of these trips have connecting flights but I only listed stops. About 80K miles of actual flying by the end of June.
Plus in the last couple of years I averaged about 50K in the second half of the year and most of it in the last 3 months. I don't expect for that to change, but I don't know the destinations yet.
Happy flying to everybody!

That looks like a lot of fun. You will be in Tokyo during a Grand Sumo Tournament (www.sumo.or.jp) and it will be baseball season.

About 50k qualifying miles on Air Canada, and one leg on CX or Dragonair:
YHZ-YUL-CDG return in early February.
Presently booking YHZ-YYZ-PEK, PEK-HKG, HKG-YYZ-YOW, YOW-YHZ in April.
I usually make a YHZ-YYZ trip bi-monthly to see my 97-year old dad. I use AC's City Pass, which is the slickest product ever offered. (Pre-pay 10 one way trips; book, change, cancel at any time; upgrade to J the day before the flight if space is available; 150% Q-miles for travelling in J).
YHZ-YUL-CDG again in the fall.
Ah, the joys of retirement!

I just wish that you can tell us where you are going and what airlines are you using as not all of us are so familiar with the airport and airline codes as you are. For example, YHZ-YYZ-PEK, PEK-HKG, HKG-YYZ-YOW, YOW-YHZ?

YHZ - Halifax, Nova Scotia
YOW - Ottawa, Ontario
YUL - Montreal, Quebec
PEK - Beijing, China
HKG - Hong Kong, China
SXM (from Statia's post) is St. Maaten in the Netherland Antilles. If you do a Google search or on airliners.net, you can find lots of pictures of planes flying over a nice beach, just feet over all the sunbathers. I'd say it has one of the most photogenic approach along with the old Kai Tak in Hong Kong (closed).

Nothing booked yet, but I have placed a tentative hold on the following award ticket and I will probably book in the next few days (I won't speak in codes):
Austin to London Gatwick
4.5 days later
London Gatwick to Madeira, Portugal to attend a wedding
Another 4.5 days later
Madeira to London Gatwick for overnight layover, home to Austin next day.
I had booked a trip to Egypt in January 2006, but I had to cancel due to an unfortunate turn of events. Thankfully it was booked as an award ticket, so no huge loss.
