Mileage Run Discussion - Spare day at LAX...MR will make the time pass..

Hi All,

I've got some flights scheduled and end up with a down day at LAX (well about 30 hours), getting into LAX on Monday the 7th of Dec at 10:30pm and leaving on the Wednesday at 7:30am...

So far to pass the time I've come up with a red eye leaving just past midnight on Monday night (well Tuesday morning) to IAH then LGA on CO, then turning around in LGA and doing LGA-ORD-SNA-SFO-LAX on UA for around 6,200 miles or so. Not great cpm (around .04(US)cpm) but I wasn't coming up with anything better..

Before I went ahead and booked it.. I figured I'd toss the question out there and see if anyone had any ideas! Oh and because I'm crediting the miles to AE none of the DEQM stuff matters much to me.

Cheers!

Is it worth the risks of IROPS? If you hit a snowstorm in ORD or LGA, your plans on Wednesday might go out the window...

Can you keep your MR to the Southern states? Perhaps an LAX-HNL?

I'm tacking it between the end of another MR and a trip home up north so the IROPS aren't a huge concern - although I may work to avoid ORD just because it so often has problems.

Wasn't seeing anything south/HNL in a reasonable price range per mile (a MR to HNL is always prefered though!)
