In any case, I'm looking for a MR that can net me 6300EQM from the DC before October 22ish. I can fly out of BWI, DCA, and IAD. I'm looking for a same day return. Flying IAD-LAX would leave me about 1300 EQM short. I'm trying to fit in something like BWI-ORD-SFO-SBP-LAX-BWI, but I'll still be slightly short and not sure if I'll have enough time at SBP...with only 30 mins between there. I'm running out of time to book this so any suggestions or tips on finding a good MR would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Watch out. If you're flying a discount economy ticket on Air New Zealand (like a K or L fare) as a Star Alliance member, it could be worth nothing on your Mileage Plus account (no mileage credit or EQM). See: http://www.kr.united.com/core/englis...air/airnz.html
