My travel schedule has started ramp up. I'll be in Chicago tomorrow for an interview, and Pittsburgh next week for a different interview. I was in Flint, Michigan last week [though no air travel required there]. Then I get a few weeks here at the Ann Arbor office to finish two papers, get a survey into the field, and plan curriculum for a workshop before going back on the road [Pittsburgh, then Montreal in a week].
I wonder if its possible for a person like me to actually acrue enough miles to get on the plane early. Actually, why is that even a perk? I understand the benefit of getting to sit in the front of the plane... [i mean, behind first class; first class benefits are fairly obvious]. Sitting in the back [where I usually sit] means that you will spend 15 minutes at minimum waiting for the people infront of you to find all the junk they shoved into the overhead compartment, while the people behind you rush into the aisle, pinning you to your seat. But even still, why would you want to spend more time on the plane [e.g., early boarding] than you need to?
Shrug. I really am planning on to write some substantive posts.... not that anyone's reading.
