1. Short runs out of SFO: If you're earning enough PQPs separately, then cheap PQF runs are SFO-LAX-LAS on weekdays - These can be either really cheap or real expensive if you want to fly at times that are in demand. There are other runs that go to other airports in California and the West but the SFO-LAX-LAS runs give you the benefit of more flights and more options - especially if anything goes pearshaped and you simply want to fly back to SFO. If you want more even more flights,
Kmxu showed an interesting 8 flight single day option earlier (

2. If you simply want to put on the BIS miles,
IAHMCI showed how to fly 14K to 18K in a weekend and earn more BIS than
ua1flyer in 2021:

Of course, pros like
Kmxu may have some thoughts about this as well...
