Finally, my last required mileage run for Star Alliance …

Whew! I’m in San Francisco and on my back to Toronto. In the last two months, I’ve would have run myself through 35,319 miles in pursuit of Star Alliance Gold Status. I’ve done about more than that in miles for the year, but the rest count as American Airlines / OneWorld miles.

It’s good to track the number of hours I’ve spent in the air, since I’ve underestimated the time spent in the air in the US and Internationally. Most of my flight time has been spent in the continental US.  Time in Spain, Morocco and Portugal doesn’t count, since I didn’t fly across those countries but enjoyed the beauty of the rail systems.

I’m almost there!!!
