Trips of 2025

Trips of 2025

I track my flights using Flighty and look back at the data each year. Flighty focuses on time spent in the air, not on trips as a whole. But you can export your data from the app, and with some wrangling you can build a good picture of your year in travel.

I wanted to understand where I spent my time in 2025.

Living in two different countries

I live in both the Netherlands and Finland: 157 days in Finland, 117 in the Netherlands. In 2026 I expect the Netherlands to take the lead.

I also spent 33 days in Japan across 4 trips, one of them a two-week vacation. I might beat that number in 2026.

Airline patterns

Before looking at the data, I assumed I flew Finnair for everything (a budget airline with premium prices). I'm less of a company man than I thought.

Looking ahead

Digging through the data gave me a clearer picture of how I traveled in 2025.

It also inspired me to start building Trippity.
