Due to a severe downturn in work travel I'm left far short of the usual 50k-75k miles per annum normally flown, and now need to reach this daunting task out of my own pocket. Thanks!

Departure Airport: PHL, EWR, JFK (can depart/return from any of the 3)
Miles Needed: 98,500 - flexible on pace (although the sooner, the better)
Required Spend or Budget: As economically as possible, while hitting the remaining $11,900 required
Available Travel Dates: Anytime
Required Metal or Codeshares okay: Codeshares fine, as long as they credit toward AA for status
