That is what I got - round trip PHL-DTW-CMH-DTW-PHL all on NWA or associated metal.. $180 and change...other alternatives were PHL-DTW-IND and return.

It is unlikely that I would fly 25K miles Jan-Feb 2009... Perhaps 4/5 trips - no where exciting: PHL-DTW; PHL-DAY; PHL-MCO and the always beautiful and luxurious PHL-MBS flight.

I will extend my WC membership while Gold. I wasn't planning to, but my wife convinced me indicating that it is always good when flights are delayed, and the occasional time when the family is traveling....

Thank you for everyone's help.
