A good MR from YYC on UA, particularly given the Cdn$. March 3-10, and a few other dates seem to be available.

With a few routing tricks you can easily get 22+k miles. Almost 1/4 of 1K. Of course actual United miles will be peanuts after 3/1.

"Of course actual United miles will be peanuts after 3/1."

Even after 2015.3.1, for Premier qualification actual miles are the only ones that matter, right?

True. That's a lot of flying for little material benefit though

Easiest way is to route YYC-ORD-NRT-SIN on the outbound (or DEN) and do SIN-HKG-GUM-HNL-IAH-YYC (or similar) on the return. Play around with ITA and United and you should be able to get these routings.
