Any ex BOS MR in May?

I have one full week of free time to MRs while I am still in USA! Won't come come to USA again until Nov for another bunch of MRs (the only purpose to come to USA is for MRs... My life is sad.) have 850 UA voucher and 1600 DL voucher. I need maybe 35K on DL and UA...
Ideas?

Don't plan to do non upgradable trip when I am in USA. Thanks.
The price is ot cheap enough to suffer myself in Y.

Now I am very confused!

You asked for MR suggestions. When FT's volunteer their experience, time, and suggestions, you reply with your own ideas?

Did you really want ideas? If so, you should thank us!

ps Learn how to spell, by the way!!

Thank you very much for your kind advice.
I got the advice to look for San from the first reply.

I type from iPad, n it is hard to type every word correctly.
I don't believe I get eqm via spelling correctly, so I didnt try too hard. Sorry for offending.

UA treats San and cld as the same in fare price.

This really rubbed me wrong... You need to relax... Many folks on here that use English as a second language, plus mobile devices are tough to type on. WOW. Stop the elite minded nonsense.

What is the purpose of a mileage run if not to become an elite?

if i can get PQM/MQM via perfect spelling/grammar, i probably would pay people to check it......

i booked one trip from BOS on UA, and another trip to AUA on DL. if there are good fare, i dont mind to do some one day trip on either UA/DL but i dont have much free time as i have quite a few things to do.

Also, i booked the IAD - GEO deal on CM planning to credit to UA.
so. my booked travel will take me to 86K PQM on UA and probably 100K MQM on DL. (at 75K on DL with 4 more trips in next few weeks, and register for double MQM promotion via LGA). I have 2 more weeks in USA in Nov and will see if I can fill in more gaps via MR. worst come to worst, i can do overnight turn HKG - SIN for UA.
and fly long haul in Y on DL/UA to make diamond on DL and 1k on UA. i wish i could pack more travel in May. but it is hard to do a same day turn to Aruba as i have never been there... so. i am wasting a few days to stay in Aruba.
