I saw a video the other day that I thought was super interesting. It was about a guy who attempted to visit all 7 domestic United hub airports in one day. The 7 airports that he attempted to visit were (in order):

  • Newark (EWR)
  • Washington Dulles (IAD)
  • Chicago (ORD)
  • Houston (IAH)
  • Denver (DEN)
  • Los Angeles (LAX)
  • San Francisco (SFO)

You guys know that I am a sucker for any kind of challenge like this, whether it’s jumping in all 5 Great Lakes in one day, or visiting every county in Ohio in 24 hours, or visiting the 67 counties in the 6 New England states.

Visiting 7 United hubs in 1 day

Back in September 2021, Jeb Brooks attempted to visit all 7 of the domestic United Hubs in one day. He posted a video of his travels. I won’t spoil you on whether he made it or not, so you’ll have to watch the video. It’s about 15 minutes long, but personally I found it pretty entertaining.

The route to visit all 7 United hubs in one day

You can see the route that he took in the Youtube thumbnail above, I was playing around with Google Flights, and I think this was probably the basic route

I couldn’t get Google Flights to do a 6 leg multi-city journey, so you’ll see that the last one (DEN-LAX-SFO) had a connection in it. In the video, he mentions that he had to book the ticket as 2 separate tickets of 3 flights each.

I definitely found this an interesting video, though I’m not sure I’m keen to try it out myself anytime soon 🙂

What’s your record for your most airports visited in one day? Leave it in the comments
