Gianni Infantino is having a summer to remember, jetting back and forth across North America, attending as many World Cup matches as possible.
From Miami to Mexico City , Atalanta to Vancouver and everywhere else in between, he's visited each of the 16 stadiums at this summer's tournament on his personal odyssey at least once.
With the competition taking its first break today since its opening fixture four weeks ago, now seems like a good moment to count up his World Cup appearances.

Infantino has flown more than 43,000 miles so far this summer
Overall, Gianni has been spotted at a total of 37 of the 96 matches that have taken part so far, or 38.5 per cent.
On board his private executive jet, he has been cruising from place to place, taking in as much of the tournament as he can, even attending multiple games on the same day in some cases.
For instance, on June 23 he was spotted at England's goalless draw with Ghana in Boston before jetting up to Canada for Panama vs Croatia later in the same day. He has done this on several occasions as well.
His travel is taking place on a Gulfstream G650ER jet, which has been provided to him by Qatar Airways, one of the competition's official sponsors, according to UOL , who have tracked Gianni's movements this summer.

Some reports claim he prefers to sleep on board the aircraft, rather than in a hotel.
The jet has also been adapted to include an office, so Gianni can spend as much time working, sleeping and travelling in the same place.
According to the BBC , Infantino's carbon footprint over the first two weeks of the competition was equivalent to 78 people on average for a whole year.
The trips are meticulously planned for Gianni, with FIFA confirming that they pay all of his travel expenses on his North American summer tour.
He has been to an average of 1.37 matches per day since the tournament started.
With no more multiple match days remaining, it's entirely possible that we see Infantino at all of the remaining eight matches which would take his tournament total up to an incredible 45 – 43.27% of the 104 games.
