DL ATL to ? for 4900 miles

New to doing mileage runs, as I never got this close before...and already have the MQD waiver!

I'm 4965 miles from Gold. Free to travel anytime between now and end of year. Happy to use passport or break into several flights. Don't mind long layovers or overnights. Budget is my only constraint ($600-700 RT max). I want it to be worth the cash outlay! Could go a tad higher if the value is there (which is something I'm still trying to sort out...)

Home airport is ATL, but flexible to fly out of anywhere in the SE (PNS, RDU, CLT, CHA, etc)

Thanks!

Welcome to FlyerTalk djweath ^ What I found isn't a great CPM but it will get the job done!

Lots of dates to chose from, use www.GCMap.com to check the route distance.

11/27, 12/3-17 ATL-SFO-SEA-ATL 4,999 miles $470-$490


Good luck!

Thanks! I was guessing the same type routes, but wanted to run it by the pros! What is a good cpm on average?

A good CPM is relevant to what city someone is flying out of, and when they are looking to travel.

Out of a fortress hub like ATL it is going to be harder to find deals. Living in SAN I frequently find sub 5 or even sub 4 CPM. This time of year people typically don't focus on CPM, and just look to hit a goal as painless as possible.
