life by numbers

Posted on 17:49 by Unknown


I'm doing preliminary work for an upcoming project (not necessarily my next one, but a book I will write someday) and I dug into my traveling background since I started my job.

The results were kind of fun and made me realize how much traveling I've done since Aug. 11, 2008. I thought it might be fun to post what I found in the interest of showing some of my semi-creative process.

Flights since starting my job:
• Sept. 2-4, 2008: (OMA to IAH; IAH to LBB; LBB to IAH; IAH to OMA)
• Sept. 15-19, 2008: (OMA to ORD; ORD to BUF; BUF to ORD; ORD to OMA)
• Oct. 16-19, 2008: (LNK to DEN; DEN to LAX; LAX to DEN; DEN to LNK)
• Oct. 27-31, 2008: (OMA to ORD; ORD to BDL; BDL to ORD; ORD to OMA)
• Nov. 4-5, 2008: (OMA to DEN; DEN to IAH; IAH to DEN; DEN to OMA)

• March 22-27, 2009: (OMA to DFW; DFW to MSY; MSY to DFW; DFW to OMA)
• April 21-24, 2009: (OMA to MDW; MDW to ALB; ALB to MDW; MDW to OMA)
• May 5-8, 2009: (OMA to DEN; DEN to HOU; HOU to MDW; MDW to OMA)
• June 17-23, 2009: (OMA to IAH; IAH to OMA)

ANALYSIS

I have:
• Taken 28 trips that involved flight.
• Rented 50 cars (one for personal reasons).
• Rented two UHaul trucks (both for personal reasons).
• Two of those were personal
• This included 101 different flights
• One had original departure from Lincoln, once from Kansas City, six from Houston, 20 from Omaha.
• Flew in and out of 25 airports.
• Top five airports by departure are:
1. OMA
2. IAH
3. DEN
4. ORD
5. ATL/ DFW

Airports (by departure)
1. OMA - 21
2. IAH - 17
3. DEN - 11
4. ORD - 7
5. ATL - 5
5. DFW - 5
7. BDL - 4
7. EWR - 4
9. ALB - 3
9. HOU - 3
9. MDW - 3
12. BUF - 2
12. BOS - 2
12. CLT - 2
12. MSP - 2
12. PHL - 2
17. LAX - 1
17. LBB - 1
17. LNK - 1
17. MCI - 1
17. MEM - 1
17. MSY -1
17. SAT - 1
17. STL - 1

Right now it doesn't mean a lot to anyone, except me, but eventually it could help me write a book.
