DL: MKE-LAX $91++ Round-Trip (4c per MQM)

If anyone needs a cheap way to LA or SkyPesos, Crazy fare. Appears to be $45.58++ each way.

Fare basis: TA07A0NA
Valid via MEM, CVG, DTW, MSP or ATL

I would say I'm hoping for a match from other carriers, but I highly doubt they'd match something this ridiculous.

Good lord. Thanks for this. I might actually keep my Delta Silver Medallion this year. Booked for Oct 29-31 for Halloween in Madison.

If anyone in the AirTran or Frontier pricing departments is reading this thread, and wants to retaliate against Delta, please offer the same fare MSP-LAX!

This worked nicely. I needed to pass through MKE in early December, found availability every day, multiple flights. With all the bonuses, will get 11,155 miles for this. At this price, taking the redeye is cheaper than a hotel !

ULDB65,

You mentioned "...all the bonuses..."? I know of the bonuses for status, but am not aware of any route specific ones? Or ?

Romelle

PS - there is availability in January too! I looked because I'll clear Gold for this year and have just under 25K to carry to next year.

Only wish AA or UA will match this. Don't like DL mileage plan.

This is a screamin' deal for someone that lives in MKE. It comes to $140 ai.

But, for $240 ai, you can travel from STL (or RDU, I believe) to LAX and get double elite miles plus a 10K mile kicker. The 10K miles are roughly worth the $100...and then you have the double elite miles, also.

Could I fly PIT-MKE-LAX-MKE-LAX-MKE-PIT on one weekend itenerary and recieve double MQM the whole way?
Or will it reject going back and forth from the same place?

Even better, I've found it for sub-$200 all-in with a same day/red-eye return on the STL-LAX flights.

STL-MEM-LAX
LAX-ATL-STL

That'd be what, 9110 MQM? Plus 10K bonus miles? Or is it 20K? I'm unclear on how that promo works...
