Update: You can also route via IAH both ways for $553 a/i if you feel like getting even more miles.
Not bad - something to consider, but I would be a bit concerned with weather.
Two runs might be a possibility: can do EWR-SFO-EWR on Dec 14 ($290) and EWR-MCO-EWR on Dec 17 ($170), for total of 7,006 PQM and $490. That's 14.3cpm - much higher than some MR's I've seen here, but 2 GPU and 2 RPU for $490 isn't bad (I think!).
Actual mileage I need is 6,938 after double- and triple-checking.
