「Student says he commuted by plane from LA to UC Berkeley 3 times a week to avoid Bay Area rent」: まー　こちらの方が安いかも知れませんが。

I love flying and I have a lot of frequent flyer miles/points from credit card sign up bonus/flying over the past few years. Bay area rent is expensive in general, and my program is only 10 months, so I thought I could get it through commuting by plane.

具体的機には

A typical day for Bill purportedly involved waking up at 3:30 am and heading to LAX for a 6:00 am flight to SFO. From there, he would take the 8:30 am Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train to Berkeley, arriving just in time for his 10:00 am classes. After a full day of lectures, he would reverse the commute and reach home in Los Angeles around midnight.

Bill, who documented the costs of his super commute on the travel forum FlyerTalk, revealed that he spent a total of $5,592.66 on commuting between LAX and SFO over the course of his one-year program.

Bill calculated that he spent approximately 75,955 minutes on his commute from his 238 flights, in which he traveled a total of 92,089 miles

だそうだそうです。

In response to one commenter who asked if he was mainly doing it for financial reasons, he wrote: “Money is not the only reason. The other reason being ‘yolo and attempt to do something no one has ever done before.’"
