The STL-LIM thing was just a good deal - it was around $400 for STL-ATL-LIM-ATL-STL, which came out to be 14708 MQMs (2.72 cents/EQM) and 41546 RDMs for DMs (.96 cents/RDM).
All flights are T class
However, for $25 more dollars, instead of going straight from RDU to ATL for my flight to JNB, I'll have
JUST enough time to go from RDU to MSP and then to ATL before the flight to JNB, hmmmm, I have until midnight to cancel and rebook, what would you do?
It would give me a total of around 2000 more mqms, skymiles, not sure but around 3000 or so.
Where are you based? $400 is cheap for a LIM flight from STL, did you have to take a flight to get to STL? $614 is the best i can find now, and thats from JFK.
