Using the cheap ORD - MSP fare (78.60 all in) which starts Jan 4 and combining those with the FLY06 25,000 bonus you can get the miles for under .01.
Depending on cost for all 3 flights you can get close to .008 per mile!

Don't forget - you need an ORD flight before Jan 1 to qualify for this promotion, so you cannot do all three flights in Jan. @:-)

But you do need to remember that one flight MUST be COMPLETED by 12/31/06. So that will raise the cost of this run a bit. Personally, I combined 2 of the cheap MSP flights with 1 weekend fare from TYS-ORD, and I'm done with the promo next Tuesday. I get a weekend in cold snowy Chicago but 3 Hyatt stays to make it a little warmer. Thos 1.5 FFN's will be great in Maui in January. =)
My CPM is more because of the hotel stays and the $150 RT to ORD, but I'm not complaining. I still think it's a great deal. I get 30,000 RDM's plus 1;5 Faster Free Nights. That's enough to upgrade my Hawaii flight and get 1 night while I'm there.

Correct... that's why I said "depending on the cost of your flights..."
Thanks for the clarification.

I just flew the 78 AA fare ord-msp this weekend.
Even with the 118 flights from lga-ord i am at .88 cents. So its quite easy.
But yes. One ord flight must be pre Dec 31.
