BA's actually one of the few programs for which 10k will get you anything. For 9k you can fly RT in coach SFO-LAX (or anything else less than 650 miles each way) on AA.
The other thing about BA, of course, is that getting the miles is pretty easy, between generous credit card signups and MR and UR transfers.
