I only started keeping note of what flights I’ve taken in 2013 so I’ll never know what my actual 100th flight was. But what I do know is that a few days ago I took my 100th flight since 2013, Auckland to LAX on an Air New Zealand 777! Nice video.

Premium class fees to upgrade depends upon the distance of the flight, and how crowded the flight.

Alaska Airlines has a fantastic mileage plan that anyone should join who flies with them occasionally or more. The accrued miles can be saved up for free or discounted trips. Flying 20,000 miles per year qualifies for MPV level and 40,000 miles MPV Gold. These levels (and higher) qualify you for free checked luggage, free first-class upgrades and more. I joined 20 years ago and have received countless first-class upgrades and discounted flights on Alaska and their One World partner airlines.

Booking your trip using an Alaska Card will give you an automatic free checked bag, including up to six? guests in your party if booked on the card.
