Seeking advice: UA milage run from DTW
I am seeking a milage run on UA from DTW to get 609 miles before the end of the year. I am willing to fly from another airport like Lansing, Flint, Grand Rapids, and maybe Cleveland. Thanks for your help.

You may be able to do your mileage run on US for less (just use your UA FF# when booking. All US mainline flights and most US Express/Shuttle flights give EQM on UA)

Detroit has rarely been kinda to United flyers and the big 4 michigan airports are all lacking attractive long distance mileage running options.
If you're looking for an excuse to get away, US has DTW-PHL/CLT/PHX-LAS for 240RT. Probably is going to be the closest to a true mileage run fare right now. I realize you only need a few miles but I wanted to offer you an option for only a little more than what others were offering to have a bit of fun.
