booked 10/30 last night and just found out i wuld be in the midwest for the weekends of 10/23-11/14 for an assignment .....it may be a little hard to get to TPA in time for the friday noon departure to LGA, and work too.....I have tried creating some routing, but no success....

Can you please help me check out possible routings from MCI/OMA/DSM, budget $300 per trip, schedule is quite open from THURS-MON, 10/23-11/14.....

thanks!!!


PS: just booked a quick run from MCI-ATL-SNA-MCI for this wknd for $160....i couldnt pass up on the deal

i am in BTV and we hardly ever have any good deals.
however, i have booked SFO-ATL-STT-SYL-SFO + 2 night hotel for 266.
then, i am looking to do BTV - JFK - SFO - JFK - BTV
(dont seem to see any routings which give much better mileage, and i certainly hope to get an upgrade on BE flight as a Plat.)

should i try to squeeze in SFO - florida mileage run when i have two free days in SFO? what type of routing can get the best rdm, eqm?
with amex prom, elite bonus, based miles. it seems to be cool to do a run given that i can find some nice flights. any suggestions?

There's some good deals on delta right now for SFO to Florida. I just booked SFO/FLL mr in November, routing thru JFK both ways, 238 ai! Booked on delta.com. 7318 miles rt.

On a side note, I am a little confused on this one--bought T fares and the confirmation from delta.com lists total miles and MQMs as 14616. I am Silver & Mr. ladysheri is Platinum, purchased tickets separately...both of our confirmations show this--can't imagine why? Am I missing something--or could that be an error?

Thanks S

System error. You will not receive double MQM's.

I've searched quite a bit. Not finding anything "MR" worthy out of those cities.

SFO-FL seem to be the best domestic MR's at the moment.

I've been trying to re-work this so it starts/ends in DTW... any ideas? I can't get it to work. I did however come up with

DTW-MSP-PDX-ATL-MCO-MEM-DTW Sat Nov 7 2009 – Sun Nov 8 2009
5920 base miles for $312 or 0.053pqm

not as good but I'm new... still working on doing better.
