2. Reposition to LAX, about 1900 MQMS
3. Virgin Atlantic, Dec 1 - 4, LAX - CPT, $1995, earns about 28,500 MQMs, $5700 MQDs, one night in Cape Town, overnight in London on return
Instead of the YVR - LIM run, you can do two runs to Hawaii (KOA,LIH) for about the same mileage routing through LAX for around $1000 in MC ($470 per trip)
Thanks so much! will 1 trip to CPT from LAX plus two Hawaii trip will get me 35k?
Do you have any other recommendations? I don't need MQD, all I need is to get 35k with less trips.
