I guess it's impossible to remember all of them. I've visted about 70 countries, most of them by air, some overland, anyway I could count 2 aiports as average per country, and that would make around 150.

It's easier than you think. I recently recreated all flights I've taken, including airline, aircraft and dates flown. For all flights newer than about 2005, I had all the information in my email already (and flightstats.com gives you the aircraft if it's not there). For older flights, I usually recall the airline (and if not, the route usually tells you, e.g. an overseas flight connecting in Amsterdam is likely KLM), and can get the dates from passport stamps, photos or events (traveled for a wedding, for a soccer tournament, etc).

This "exercise" took a few hours of my time, but brought back a lot of fond memories of all the places I've traveled. According to my stats, I've traveled to 148 airports on 63 airlines in 33 types of aircraft to 71 countries (with another airport and airline added tomorrow :))

Yeah, but when you're on a long haul flight you gotta amuse yourself somehow. Anything to make the hrs pass by quicker.

I guess you must by much younger than I am, or would you remember all your flights 20-25 years ago? For ex, I'm trying to remember if I flew to Tauranga in NZ or I drove, I can't remember either all the airports in the USA that I flew to/from on my several trips to the country.
