Departure Airport: PHX (Can reposition if not too costly)
Miles Needed: 18,500 EQM (to Exec Plat)
Dollars Needed: $0
Budget: up to < $1000
Chinese Visa: Y
Available Travel Dates: 4 days must include a weekend (Need to avoid Thanksgiving weekend)

I already booked one PHX-CGK for a Friday to Monday for ($928) but all the other weekends I can go are up around 1100 and I'm trying to get this done on the cheap. Any other options to get the required mileage but keep it below $1000 even if I have to do two trips. I'd like to avoid having to use 2 vacation days if I can as well but if I have to repeat the PHX-CGK trip I will just hoping for another option
