2015 Year in Review: Flights

It's hard to believe it's almost 2016!  I'm done flying for the year so here's the year in review.  You can read about my 2013 and 2014 flying history if you'd like.

In 2015, I traveled a fair amount for work (8 trips) so racked up enough miles to keep my United Premier Silver status.  Nothing to jump up and down about but it's better than nothing.  I took 7 long haul flights (all award tickets) and flew over 88,000 miles after flying 65,000 in 2014 and 87,000 in 2013.

I booked almost a dozen award tickets across the year and flew on several new carriers (Emirates, Maldivian, and British Airways.  I don't have anything booked for 2016 so will have to get on that over the holidays!

Here are some of the highlights from 2015:

• Visited 11 countries (4 new)
• Visited 2 continents (Europe & Asia)
• Flew on 12 airlines (United, Singapore, Thai, Asiana, Cathay Pacific, Air India, Maldivian, Emirates, British Airways, Delta, Frontier, and American) 
• Flew 46 segments
• Flew 88,415 miles
• Visited 27 airports in 12 countries and 7 US States
• Shortest flight was London to Amsterdam at 231 miles
• Longest flight was Dallas to Dubai at 8,040 miles
• Four flights over 7,000 miles
• The best flight of the year was definitely Emirates First Class DFW to DXB
