10K MR on DL out of NYC

My SO needs 10,200 miles by year-end to push her to GM. Any thoughts on inexpensive (sub-$600) upgradable fares to accomplish this? 4 RTs on the shuttle with triple miles would be the last resort; a fun destination for a one- or two-day mini-vacation would be ideal. There is a nice $500 fare to GIG but it's an insULT fare; the M is $1,600.

I know this is a tall order but given the creativity of you FT veterans, perhaps it's not impossible!

You can do LGA/BOS on the shuttle. Triple base miles. 3K per rt. Do 4 rt for about 400 bucks.

Are the triple base miles on the shuttle good on every flight, or just weekday or just delayed flights? I'm 6K short of gold.

Triple base miles every day. They post the same day or next day at the most... automatically.

I have had one instance only when they did not post, and no is certain what happened.
