I is an amazing time savier to decide where to credit miles in comparison to the usual process of checking airline pages for minutes and calculating miles manually.
Another suggestion: what about entering 2 destinations and automatic mile calculation based on the FFPs' multipliers?
Thanks! I think somebody had already mentioned it, and its on my to-do list

I had a similar idea that I started work on, but never got to releasing it
It had a mileage calculator too between two cities that would determine the total EQM/RDM for a given city pair, airline, and booking code -- if you'd like the code and data for that I'd love to help out.
I'm considering turning this into a web app with a REST back-end powering it. Since I'm using a free server, I hope that it'll lower my bandwidth usage significantly. The only thing holding me off is I'm a little behind on my SEO best practices and I'm not sure if Google will be able to index client-side rendering (any ideas?).
I'm trying to find a good source for airports as well. I have an airport database compiled from openflights, etc. but it's leaves a lot to be desired. I'm trying to avoid having to maintain both earning tables and airports as well - surprisingly challenging. It'd be great if gcmaps had an API, but I couldn't find one. It'll eventually get there.
