Anyway, possibilities are endless. I assume you want to fly soon to get Gold for the remainder of the year - play with Google flights on days you can take off easily. Best to look for flights where the plane turns - you won't miss connection that way. And personally I'd pay a bit more for a shorter flight - FLL/PBI are longer flights, which I'd avoid.
Thanks for this - I was able to book the Ashville flight for the day before, May 16 (to coordinate with my work schedule)!

Just to double check, if I booked with Chase Sapphire points (on the Sapphire portal) and on United, it says I qualify for PQM/PQD, then I'm good, right? It's a G fare, if that helps.
