$2000 perhaps with enough luck and skill, but I doubt it. I will give anyone who can ticket all ten cities this for less than $2000 a free AA SWU.

WAY above my CPM mileage run threshold.

This promo only makes sense if you already need to go to many of those cities.

-----------------------------

The cheapest way to fly this.

What we have to work with:

Asheville, NC AVL DFW
Augusta, GA AGS DFW
Cheyenne, WY CYS DFW
Myrtle Beach, SC MYR DFW
Fayetteville, NC FAY DFW

Lexington, KY LEX ORD
Charleston, WV CRW ORD
Tri-cities, TN TRI ORD
Sioux Falls, SD FSD ORD
Harrisburg, PA MDT ORD
Allentown, PA ABE ORD
Rapid City, SD RAP ORD
Scranton/Wilkes Barre, PA AVP ORD
Fargo, ND FAR ORD

Beijing, China PEK ORD
Treasure Cay, Bahamas TCB MIA
Eleuthera, Bahamas ELH MIA

From ORD, make it three trips:

ORD-LEX-ORD-MIA-ELH
ELH-MIA-ORD-CRW-ORD

ORD-TRI-ORD-MIA-TCB
TCB-MIA-ORD

ORD-MDT-ORD-ABE-ORD-PEK
PEK-ORD-FAR-ORD-FSD-ORD

100,000 miles are now yours.

With luck in finding the right booking engine, skill in finding availabilty and inputing flyable schedules into fare engine, and a great deal of time and determination, one may be able to ticket this using just three MPM fares.

ORD-PEK
MPM FARE - ROUTE NOT APPLICABLE
MAXIMUM PERMITTED MILEAGE IS 7885

ORD-TCB
MPM FARE - ROUTE NOT APPLICABLE
MAXIMUM PERMITTED MILEAGE IS 1717
(Example: ORD-LEX-ORD-MIA-TCB 2036 miles, within the 25M of the MPM so valid)


ORD-ELH
MPM FARE - ROUTE NOT APPLICABLE
MAXIMUM PERMITTED MILEAGE IS 1644
So is it that you have fly to PEK from one of the 17 cities? Which one's are applicable?
I am impressed with your knowledge of all these routes. So it is ok to fly from DFW? I was thinking you had to fly only between the cities mentioned.
Or is it just to and from them from any destination?
