It should, though the timings and availability may be different.
Do people want these posted? $321 is a somewhat common non-summer rate BOS-West Coast for AA as of late. I know it is a pretty good deal for EQMs (particularly if you qualify for DEQ11 and fly to SFO or LAX) but I've seen several lower fares recently. Would people want anything posted under 4 cpm? I've kinda been spoiled so I'm trying to post only under 3 cpm since there is still a lot of months left before the end of the year, and September/October usually have the best MRing fares.

Frankly, I'd be interested in anything under 5 cpm. MRs getting below 5 cpm can be hard to find in SEA land. I'd be interested in MRs involving California as well, SEA/Cali can be cheap (with good cpm if you do it right) but they rarely connect further on the same carrier...

well.. if it is for UA or other Airlines I would not post. But given how quiet this forum been lately... even 4 cpm is good.. especially with AA. you may have better AA deal in Jan-March or in the fall but who can fit the schedule to do the run over those months only? Me for example, I had so many UA run planned during those months but only had only a few AA domestic trips... so I need to do more AA during other months.

Just asking. I was going to post the $280 that had been briefly available last night but it evaporated as I was making my post . My leaning is anything under 4.5 cpm, but I was curious as to if anyone wanted anything better. I do take into account time and if it can be done all on a weekend. If it was purely Tuesdays/Wednesdays, then my bar is set for a lower cpm before I will post. If it can be done on weekends (for the 9-5ers among us, myself included) then cpm can be higher. Same with international fares, even approaching 5 cpm, it can be valuable to get a big chunk of miles done in short order.
I'll try to post anything under about 4.5 cpm now.

And you are right, it has been quiet here lately.

anyway to check just american airlines? i have a travel from seattle to sjc, hopefully i can fly one stop to sjc at least one way. but when i try it aa, it is giving me options via alaska.
PS: I am looking on american because i am just short of 20 points on british silver status.
This is my first attempt at working out a mile run that I plan for myself (my boss shipped me off on one on Dec 30th last year at his expense to get me up to AA gold status) and I just want to check the math.
I'll be in LA this June and am based out of Chicago. I'm DEQ11 and BOSEQ registered.
If I went LAX-DFW-BOS and Bos-ORD the next day having a gold status, would I get 2797 EQM for LAX-DFW-BOS x2 (Double miles) + .25% for Gold = 6294 miles plus 867 for Bos - ORD + .25% = 1084 for a total of 7378 miles at a cost of 5.79 cpm?
Two quick questions, I can book the LAX-DFW-BOS flight as one flight and get the promotions for both cities, correct?
Also, if I book in coach and use stickers for an upgrade to first, you don't get the first class bonus for that do you? I'm assuming I'd have to book a first class ticket for that.
I know it's not a great mile run, but it looks like a decent way to add some miles over a LAX to ORD run and see some friends in the meantime.

Thanks for you patience and help.
Welcome to FT! You have to book round trips to qualify for the promo. LAX-DFW-BOS-DFW-LAX would work. You have to fly DFW-BOS-DFW on the same PNR/ticket for BOSEQ, and SFO/LAX-DFW/ORD and reverse on the same ticket for DEQ11. Flying only one way will get you no bonus miles. And sticker upgrades don't get you the bonus, you have to be booked into an F class fare to get the bonus. I wish I had your boss! Good luck!
