UA: LGA/JFK-BUR/SJC/ABQ/AUS/SMF ~$121 o/w 3.4cpm
Thanks to burlax for finding this on UA originally. Looks like United is matching.

Fares as low as $120.60 one-way.

Got mileage as high as 3,648 with 500 mile minimums for LGA-IAD-SFO-BUR 3.4cpm.

I personally booked JFK-LAX-SJC with service on p.s. Premium Service for $120.60. Pretty pleased about that.

Thanks again, burlax.

EDIT 7:07am: Just discovered it works for SMF, too.
EDIT 7:18am: Looks like ABQ & AUS work as well.

UA just needs a little bit of massage love. I've got that itinerary pulled up for $226.80 on UA's site:

Still live for SMF, too. Screenshot below.

Also, I just rebooked a LGA-ORD-LAX-SJC itinerary for $10 cheaper than I did when I originally posted this.
