Just booked a weekend trip in March for 2 reasons: To finally get on CRJ200 aircraft and have shortest flight ever (time-wise)...JNB-NTY (Sun City) at 87mi...just shy of shortest ever in distance which was NSN-WLG at 83mi, but was with Saab340.

2/3/18: JNB-NTY SA Express CRJ200
5/3/18: HLA-GRJ FlySafair 737-400
3 optional trips: RUN/MRU in May, Paris in Aug, Queensland (BNE/MCY/HVB/BDB) in Oct...but still have to see if all will materialise
Finally booked something more concrete, the Airline and Destination is a bit more exciting, but the aircraft is probably all boring 737-800...the Australia trip will most likely not happen this year:
2/3/18: GRJ-JNB Kulula 737-800
2/3/18: JNB-NTY SA Express CRJ200

12/6/18: RUN-JNB Air Austral 737-800
13/6/18: JNB-GRJ FlySafair 737-800
Got a good deal for Paris on KQ/AF in Aug which couldn't let it pass by...and it's showing AF 789...
First flight of the year also had hiccups, got text early morning of 4hour delay, rushed to airport to get earlier flight on SA Express, which Kulula agreed to put us on to, to make connection to NTY.
2/3/18: GRJ-JNB SA Express CRJ700 (was suppose to be Kulula)

Very cool. I too only have 4 (maybe 6) flights this year. Also lots of firsts for be. First B787/B190/SF34 and the other is another A380 for me. Got that one already.

January:
FLL-LGB B6 first time to LGB.
LAX-FLL VX first time on VX (at least the product not the operating certificate).
February:
FLL-PHL B6 first time to PHL airport. Been to Philadelphia a few times.
PHL-FLL B6
March:
FLL-ATL B6
ATL-FLL
August:
MIA-LHR AA 77W
LHR-CPH BA A321 first time to CPH airport, been to Copenhagen before.
CPH-LHR BA A321
LHR-MIA BA 744 (happy to get on a 744 again).
Looking to book:
Hopefully will head to CTG in May. B6 is the likely airline given prices right now, but we will see.
Should be heading to Boston in July. B6 or AA are the likely choices, with B6 usually the option.
Looking to go to MSY some time later in the year. And hopefully many more opportunities to fly come around.

Oh no! Well, as long as I get a widebody, at least one 787 and the same window seats I booked for both flights I'll be OK.

Well never loose the hope completely. LA fleet is really a lottery with all this RR mess. A few weeks ago I booked a flight SCL - MVD and I got a 789, when that route is served by A320 99% of the times, and by the older 320’s of the fleet.
Even more, I won a Bussines upgrade and flew on the Bussines cabin of the LA 789 for the first time.
On the other hand, I have a flight SCL- AKL for September and everything is pointing to a change from my original 789 to a 17 years old leased 777 which should be covering that route in the foreseeable future....in other words, you never know what LA will use for your next flight until you’re seated on it !!

Well, I wouldn't be upset if I got the 777 as it would be my first flight on the type, even though I have my doubts about the IFE. Here's hoping
