I've got Oct. 22 - 25, Nov. 13-14 and December up to the 15th open. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I assume 4 SWUs are generally worth $400-500, right? Seems like a logical move to me. And in my situation it will likely mean a fourth quarter CR1 (I think I am roughly 2,000 miles short at the moment). With that said I could be adding business travel that could add up to 4,000 or so EQMs...more/less...it's open...but I may not be short the full 16,000 EQM -> so all suggestions are welcomed!
125eqm year end EC is 2 SWU's not 4. Not sure where you are getting the other 2 from.
