Works from SJC as well, through EOS. $200 rt is rare, but there (I've snagged a couple).

I cover airports and airlines at the Los Angeles News Group, a chain of nine Southern California newspapers, including the L.A. Daily News, Long Beach Press-Telegram and Torrance Daily Breeze. I also blog at www.insidesocal.com/aviation.

For awhile, I've been wanting to tag along with a LA-based mileage runner for a story. My editors think what you all do is pretty cool, and I agree.

Would anyone who is doing this mileage run allow me to come along?

DM me or email me at [email protected]. Thank you!

Are these same-day turns? Did you book them on AA.com? How?

TIA!

What does this even mean? A $200 fare that books into F?

Never mind, I see what you mean ($385 for F according to the other thread).
