What are your strategies for running out of hubs? I've checked airports nearby but its tough going.

Do you re-position yourself to a coast and go from there? Say get to LAX for around 7 CPM and take a cross country for 3.5? Averages good but not ideal.

I'm soon to be GM but the business travel is going to dry up later this year. Hoping to get back to DL PM again this year and will have to run sooner or later.

use the 9K avios miles to position to ORD. From ORD, there are plenty of good DL runs throughout the year. For example, the recent IST runs.
