    A few ideas for you Josh:
    1. Around the world in turbo-props. No jets allowed. Bonus points if you can do it only in high-winged turbo props.
    2. Think you're tired after this? Try going around the world in low cost carriers...
    3. Around a world without hotels - Fly around the world without ever leaving an airport
    4. Compete with Noel on going the farthest with $1000 USD. You start in Europe, he starts in the States and you both meet in Iceland at the end.

Start in a city that starts with an A and fly to a city that starts with a B, then to a C city, then a D city and so on and see if you can connect all the way and finish at a city that starts with a Z. That would be so fun and so crazy to see you try this!!! I can't wait to see what you do next!!!

    What did you use to check the flights on your phone at the airport?

    I'd like to see you fly from LA or SF to a eastern part of Europe but flying west to get there or same in reverse. Just the booking would be monumental.

    Here’s a challenge for you: On New Year’s Day 1999-2000, I flew Sydney to Los Angeles and crossed the international date line 3 times, then it turned midnight before I landed. That meant I was in 4 years in 24 hours!!
    So the flight went 2000-1999-2000-1999-2000. Part of this was the special timezone of Kiribati that they changed in 1999 so they could be the first country with a sunrise in the new millennium … maybe they kept it, I haven’t checked. But I went in the pilot’s cabin (this was pre-9/11) and they showed me the special edition of the timezone map (yep, a big printout, folded up several times) and you could follow the black line with the “T” labels along it … and see that our flight did cross it 3 times. Part of it was because we were flying diagonal (north-west), but the other secret was that the International Date Line was very crooked, like a “gerrymander”, so that a country who used to be on one side could force themselves onto the other side. Kiribati (pronounced like “kirri-bass”) has (had?) a timezone that was 14 hours ahead of UTC or GMT! You’re only supposed to have 12 hours ahead and behind, and maybe 13 with daylight savings, but 14 was insane!
