Not quickly as in days - would take about 2 months or so for another card to kick in sign on bonus miles. PinDebit magic card tricks would take a similiar amount of time. You could try USAir miles gifting to bulk miles but kinda pricey even with the 50% bonus....

If shut down on the return flying East, you could look into a return flying West.

Silly me (rookie) - I forgot to note that I need a round-trip flight.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to bump my 40K/30K/30K Delta/AA/US Air miles quickly to reach any of the 3 airlines' round-trip minimum to Japan? I recently got the initial sign-up bonuses for all three airlines using credit cards, so I'd need to go another route. (Chase Ultimate Rewards points, or something like that?)

thanks in advance.
