I would consider ANC-Hawaii.

If you can leave tomorrow or Wednesday, you can do it for under $1000. And there is good award availability between BET and ANC. You can do it pretty much anytime if you are willing to spend up to $1500.

If you have more miles than you know what to do with, you can use the AS50 to bring the cost of the purchased ticket down further.

You can also use your intrastate award to get you somewhere like JNU and try to get a ticket out of there for a little cheaper, but you're looking at much more time involved (like overnights in JNU both directions, etc)
