I had a quiet year with only 20 flights. 18 on QF and 2 on SQ.
If even half of what I know about this year comes off, could be a big year for me. But then, sometimes a directive will come down from up high to cut back travel, and it all stops for a few months.
Had a look at my activity statement and I did 35 flights with separate flight numbers. The breakdown was 31 Qantas, 2 Finnair, 1 British Airways and 1 Air France - 28 domestic and 7 overseas.
The flights included three CBR-SYD-PQQ flights that I would have preferred never to have made, with the serious illness and passing of two close relatives
According to my records I returned safely to earth 26 times last calendar year, all in the hands of QF.
This is following a pattern of purposeful flight reduction over the last five years as my wife and family have upgraded me from "lodger" status at home to "regular garden maintenance". :P
