Bonkers is an understatement. I have been asked if I need therapy. My reply is that this IS therapy for me.

Anyways, a bit of a dilemma on my hands.

I can do either a STL-LAX-SFO-BOS-DFW-SAN-LAX-JFK-LAX-SAN-DFW-STL for 60K RDM (I don't care about EQM anymore this year as I am already PLT) cost is $860ai with a $300 voucher.

or

3x RDU-DFW-SEA-DFW-SEA for 65K RDM cost is $570ai with a $300 voucher.

I know the RDU trip is a much better deal, but I want to get some more bumps in this year and I think that the STL trip would give more opportunity for that. Though both itineraries have all flights currently at half full.

Help a crazy man out with which to do?
