Miles Needed (SQM): 1,400
50,000 - 48,800 = 1,200. Is there a buffer built in there?

You're not very far off though. Have you had any schedule changes to any of your upcoming trips? If so, you could potentially try to use those as an excuse to re-route one of these trips for some extra SQM without spending anything extra. For example, YYZ-YVR-LAS is over 1,000 miles more than YYZ-LAS non-stop.
