Hadn't seen this thread before
It's a great idea as some routes are expensive and never become mileage runs. Thx for switching this post over to it.

Thru Aug 24. Tons of 7 day trips on Saturday flights and some mid-week via IAH for another $5 more each way. I just snapped up a couple of seats for Mrs UAAAPeter and myself. Now the question is where to stay as SJD is such a ripoff for hotels. Maybe La Paz - rental cars are $4 a day - really.... Similar fares on other airlines but not quite so good.
