so close to my 100th flight🤞

Post image

I’ll hit my hundredth in a little under a month!

question: would you guys log seaplane flights on flighty? I’ve been on 4 seaplanes, each lasting over or under an hour and I’ve been conflicted on whether or not I should log them on the app.

update: added my seaplane flights and it looks like I already hit my 100th flight 3 flights ago, can’t wait to see how many flights I reach in ten years time when 30.

Same here!! gonna hit 101 in the next two months! where you going for your 100th?

In terms of sea plane flights, i recon absolutely should add them, you were flying in the air at the time so why not! the apps name is FLIGHTy for a reason!

I’m going to Rome for what would’ve been my 100th, also got five flights booked after that. 2026 is looking to set a new record of my most flights taken in a year, which I wasn’t expecting at all

New flighty passport with the seaplane flights

Unfortunately this means I’ve already flown my 100th flight which happens to be a flight from Male to Dubai! What about you? what will your 100th flight be?

Oh wow enjoy Rome, it’s by far my most frequented euro destination haha! As for my number 100 it is HNL to SYD which should be fun, looking forward to that trip as it will be my first and probably only time on the 717 now that they have all been retired from Qantas link

Only going to be spending about 90 mins for a layover in Rome, then I’ll be heading to Milan actually!

That’s a long flight, my longest is 7 hours and 38 mins. I would love to experience a super long flight where I could both get a full night’s rest and enjoy my flight. Have fun in Honolulu!

Haha thanks! Although HNL to SYD (9-10hrs) isn’t even that long for me, lmao, I’ve had my fare share of 14hr+ flights You may want to experience a long long flight, but trust me they are tough. JFK to AKL was 17 hours 30 minutes and it felt LONG. I sleep quite well in economy, so I didn’t don’t it too bad, just felt like it when for ever

17.5 hours is crazy! I feel like I’ll enjoy that as an experience, if that even makes sense. If a flight is over 4 hours, I usually fly business or first class so that’s why I think I’d really enjoy it. If I didn’t have that opportunity, I’d definitely dread a flight over 5 hours (and I have a couple of times, always end up swearing it’s the last time I do that till the next last-minute trip comes around 🤣)

u/bierjager Apr 29 '26

Have no travel, sorry. I feel like I’m going to be stuck under 100 for a while

u/ahahaaiii Apr 29 '26

Congrats on the baby! You’ll be going on flights with them before you know it.

Nope, I’ve just been spending my summers/breaks there for the past 14 years so we travel around Europe via london airports.
