Also found CLE-DFW (usually through IAH) for $129 with 2336 miles (N fare), available from early 2016 weekend departures plus a few early Dec 2015. This pops up with 2-3 day stays and worked for MLK 2016 weekend. Ironically found this during DTW-DFW search with nearby airports and didn't even blink to book it.
Great deal for weekend getaways to Dallas, may not yield the best cpm for non-UA MP members but still a great deal nonetheless.
update:
I am not seeing any IAD-DFW for $101 but saw ORD-DFW $137 with wide-open availabilities during holiday periods and weekends.

BTW, on the check-in screen, there is an option to change flights. I found it can give you more favorable routing than what is presented in the "change flights" button in the itinerary. So don't forget to check.

When an airline offers a change in flights upon kiosk check in I suspect they may be trying to drain pax from an oversold flight. Still I like the offer and might take it in the future if the change offers some benefit like the added miles.
