BUR-SMF 52$ OWs.....I believe this is cheapest run currently. 3 hour RT....I've done this.....

Personally, depending on your 2015 travel planes, the 75 percent bump in points could be worth $416 alone.....

I know I'll make A-List no problem, but to be only 8 segments away from A-List preferred, that is frustrating! So my question is two-fold, are the benefits of A-list preferred over A-list worth trying to find time in my schedule for 8 segments? And if so...what's the easiest/cheapest way to do that? I know it won't be on long "mileage runs" but rather a bunch of quick trips.

Thanks!
