What's happening!!! I have a wedding this weekend in CLT (out of LAX) and had supper cheap WN flights with Points through DAL and with loophole from MAX free changes. Even with that, I just booked LAX-CLT-LAX for 14,000 miles to depart tomorrow and return Sunday night, and I can avoid connecting in DAL both ways. I love WN free reinbursment of points and fee
Also got SNA-DFW-LGA for 6,000 in June and DCA-DFW-SNA for 5,000 miles. Booking the late flights so I can free stand by via AAdvantage Gold (only reason the million miler is worth it).
