Need 30K miles on AA from LAX to make EXP
I am headed over to EXP and need 30K between and now and Dec 23. Can anyone make suggestions? The promo is miles or points and I'm guessing miles is easier.
Thanks!
Thanks!

If you're up for it, something like this- https://www.google.com/flights/#sear...2469;a=AA;eo=e
Plus a little cheap domestic flying to finish it out.

LAX-DFW-HKG-DFW-LAX out 10/2 return 10/4 is $689. 18660 miles is a good start. Then keep your eyes open for something to Europe that is sufficient for the remaining miles, look for out on a Saturday return on Sunday.

I'm going LAX-MIA-LHR-BAH on Friday, but staying a day in BAH with a friend and going back Monday the 16th BAH-LHR-DFW-LAX. Let me know if you book that outbound, as of yesterday I saw it was still available.

You can always call and give an agent the itinerary and ask what the price would be to get it in a 1PPM fare, but I'd guess it would be significantly more.

Ugh, I'm jealous of all of you who are able to get EXP through this promo; I did the Plat challenge in January, and it would have been realllly nice to have EXP for this entire year.
