He joined the company's frequent flyer program in 1983 and has since CLOCKED UP 11 million miles with United, on over 6,000 flights. A United Airlines SPOKESPERSON said that in 2012, Mr Stuker had flown the same BREADTH as 40 times around the Earth.

Mr Stuker told reporters that 2012 was a record year for him and that he was ''BEAT''. He said: ''I know I'll never fly this much again in a year.'' He said he is looking forward to ''hardly'' flying next year – perhaps around half-a-million miles.
