14k on AA/DL/AS from MCI

I looks like I am going to end up being about 14k short of alaska airlines MVP gold 75k. I would like to either run in early november or mid-late december as I have a RTW trip coming up Nov 19th through Dec 3rd (thanks alitalia ) I have been looking but haven't found anything that stands out. Any of you guys have any ideas?

HKG is $1024 in early November, CGK is below $1000 and as low as $939 out 11/10, return 11/12.

MCI-CGK was $850 when I booked a couple of weeks ago. Used a voucher, so price was even better.

Issue with CGK is that the flights from nrt-cgk are JL metal which doesn't credit to AS

Another option would be ICN. Haven't checked prices in a few weeks, but MCI-DFW-ICN r/t was in the mid $800s for one or two day stays. I'm actually doing a quick turn in ICN next week.

I ended up just doing IAH-LHR-DOH-LHR-IAH on 11/20 to 11/28 for $742.84. It is 16,186 miles @ 4.59 cpm books into O class.

If you wanted to do it as a MR:
