Wow that is a lot. I have a nice 5 week break from school in Mid December to Mid January. I will finally be purchasing the NGX and will be running something like this:
MIA-BOI
BOI-JFK
JFK-RDU
RDU-LAX
LAX-PHX
PHX-STL
STL-DCA
DCA-JFK
JFK-SFJ-JFK
JFK-KEF-JFK
Also planning on getting to Europe for a bit too. Above is about 6 days of flying all with the 738 probably. So with 5 weeks off and free weekdays I should have some more time.

Whatever I feel like.
Although I do have some "tours" that I want to fly at some point.
Like either of this in Tu-104:
original CSA run:
or into Carribean, shorer hops version:
or longer hops version:
and I have planned a tour of best Russian sceneries (that might need updating)
(a-net system won't handle this well, please copy& paste into gcmap.com)
KSC-KGD-UMMS-LED-UWGG-SVX-USNN-UOOO-UNKL-UNNT-UAAA-UTTT-UTAA-URMM-URSS-UKOO-KSC,UOOO-UERR-UEEE-UHMM-UHPP-UHSS-UHWW-UHHH-UHBB-UIAA-UIII-UNKL
The shorter variant (from UOOO fly to UNKL) is covered wholy, the longer variant all the way round to Kamchatka was not quite completely covered at the time of planning (a year ago) but may be now (with a little re-routing, possibly)
Also, all the sceneries are free, except maybe KGD.

Next summer, I'll have a route all planned out to take me from my home training airport (CBF- Council Bluufs, IA) to OSH and back the week of the AirVenture. I'm still working on the details (and trying to decide on the airplane- JustFlight C152 vs. Piper Archer III vs. Pilatus PC-6), but I've got plenty of time.
Also on the list:
HNL-LAX (Hawaiian 767-300)
DTW-AMS (Delta 767-400)
ATL-BDA (Delta 737-800)

Wow... you really plan ahead! For some reason, I'm on a kick of doing "Delivery Flights", so I've been delivering an aircraft, then flying scheduled flights to either Seattle, Toulouse, Hamburg or Sao Paulo (whichever is closer) and then picking up another aircraft and repeating the process.
My last delivery was a Kenya Airways EMB-190 routed SJK-REC-SID-DKR-NBO. From there I hopped a Speedbird B772 to LHR and have an A319 waiting for me to take it to TLS. Then it is just a matter of figuring out whose Airbus or ATR to deliver, and then off I go.
I've been enjoying this new theme, and it has given me a new favorite airport of OVB. I can't pinpoint exactly what I like about it, but I've had a blast stopping there delivering Chinese Airbii out of XFW.

UNNT scenery is just spectacularly beautiful, really. Make sure to get your hands on other sceneries from Tolmachevo Team, UNCC Novosibirsk Severniy is a nice airport with short runway, and I think they have done SVX as well.

I don't really plan my 'flights'. When I am in the mood for FS, I fire it up and then think about some routes. Sometimes real world routes, sometimes extreme long fligts, sometimes Island hopping etc etc.

I'm in Florida right now but my computer is in Iceland so I won't start until next November. I fully understand why you don't want to plan things, I was like that. Don't know what changed.
I planned 200 flights and then I stopped. Don't gonna put them here, probably too boring to read

Quoting SRQKEF (Reply 12): It will probably take months, but I like it
I am the same way, I plan all of my flights to be as real as it get! I also will never just pick a flight and fly......I will fly out of the airport I landed last!

Quoting SRQKEF (Reply 14): Got 250 flights now, but I think I'll stop now
I feel sorry for my 27-leg refined tour of Russia And Some Post Soviet Countries.
Although I have had it refined and now all legs feature a scenery, usually very pretty one. I already started to fly it and am about to leave Kaliningrad for Minsk later this evening.,

I personally would suggest you take a look at LatinVFR for South America sceneries. I fly around there relatively ofted, for the thrill of operating in difficult conditions. Run Sucre-Cuzco is THE run for 727 enthusiast, although for your 737 leg from SXM I would suggest a flight to Tegucigalpa Honduras, for it is more like 737 flight range-wise.

This is a nice thread. Keep posting your itineraries!
I used to hold to FS schedules, however, personal obligations would come up and I would be unable to fulfill the itineraries. As WILCO737 stated, I just fire up the simulator and pick two places. My recent "flights" have been UA 695 LGA-ORD (A319), and B6 143 JFK-PBI (A320). I would like to do another A380, however, I'm pretty indecisive on which one to do. Ideas welcome..

I based a whole series of PMDG 737-800 NGX flights on a trip report I had read, which was flown and reported by an Anet member, airpearl one of the best I have ever read, full of history especially the legacy regarding the Pacific battles of WWII and numerous testing. The trip report was posted on the 2nd of Sept 2011. The flight departs Honolulu PHNL around 6.55am and finishes in Guam PGUM early evening, flying via numerous islands in Micronesia including Majuro PKMJ, Kwajalein PKWA, Kosrae, Pohnpei, Chuuk, with some very challenging 6000 foot runways to land on along the way and quick turnarounds, a real milk run, but alot of fun. The trip report was taken pre merger so Continental was operating it at the time, post merger United operates it using a 737-800, ETOPS of course, as flight UAL 172. If you visit Flightaware you can obtain all the departure details, durations etc. or read the excellent trip report, but most of all fly it, you wont regret it
but then I got a sudden urge to do African hops and didn't feel like doing a long haul against the wind over the Indian ocean so I "teleported" from YSSY- FAJS and began doing flights which didn't always begin from the previous airport.
Next I'm thinking about flying around North America and the Caribbean for a while.

That's an interesting idea I did a delivery flight once took a brand new A319 EDHI - OTBD - VOMM - WIII - YPDN - YBBN. Was going well until I tried to land in YBBN as I was on final I kept on getting cut of by AI traffic (usually a Qlink Q400) which would make me go around this happened one too many times and I ended up running out of fuel over Moreton Bay. Ever since then I've taken off AI traffic.

I just recently got a new computer, that can FINALLY run FS9 with all the bells and whistles I like, with decent frames. So, I have gotten back into the game hardcore, and this seems like a great topic to post about it in.
I have been using FSPassengers, and created my own TWA (for some reason I've really been into the latest TWA scheme lately). I have only an A318 so far, and yesterday alone I flew:
PVD-PHL, then as some of you guys put it "teleported" back to PVD
PVD-DAB-PVD-CVG-PVD-ALB-PVD-LGA where I RONed.
Tonight when I get home from work, I plan on doing LGA-PVD-NAS, and RONing there
Tomorrow I will either fly back to PVD, or do NAS-SXM, and back to PVD via SJU or MIA, I haven't quite decided yet.
Some of you guys really plan these flights out way in advance. Thats awesome. I certainly enjoyed reading about all the 'exotic' destinations you guys have been visiting. My flights in comparison seem fairly boring.
I'm currently on a round-the-world trip with the DL 737, which will take me now to:
FAJS
FJDG
VHHH
RJCC
PANC
KSEA
After that, I'm planning to fly non-stop in a 77L KSEA-FAJS, then SAA A340 FAJS-YPPH, a transcon of some sort, then a QF 744 SYD-LAX, before heading up to Canada for some Ice Pilots action!
After that I wont have too much time during the week so I think I will head to the Caribbean which is great for doing short flights with anything from a Caravan to a 738.
