I'm not booked to go anywhere else for business this year and to add insult to injury - just lost my passport, so I'm domestic restricted! I'm not great at this stuff and would love some help figuring out if I can get to Charlotte NC or Atlanta this year and hit this mileage accrual. I'm UA Gold right now, all other criteria met.

Departure Airport: IAH
Miles Needed: 5660
Required Spend or Budget: $500 ideally..
Available Travel Dates: Any mid week / weekends after thanksgiving
Required Metal or Codeshares Okay:

Route(s) You've Already Searched: A few of them..
Just a random thought... call SQ and see if you can pay up to a higher fare class that will give you the needed qualifying mileage / PQD. That would eliminate your need to do an additional trip. You may be able to do it without paying a change fee.... after all, you would be giving SQ free money.
