Are all of your flights for the rest of the year booked? If not, the easiest thing to do is to force an extra connection. I have done this for my last flight of the year (connecting through CLT to DCA rather than taking a non-stop to DCA). In many cases it's not more expensive (or at least not much more expensive).
