Required Spend or Budget: As low as possible
Available Travel Dates: 9/14 - 9/16, 10/3 - 10/6

Thanks!
How about a trip to Hawaii and then one to Chile?
e.g. Sept 15, JFK-SEA-KOA-SEA-JFK, $682 (MC), about 10,200 MQMs, just over 2 hours in KOA,

Oct 3 - 5, JFK-LIM-SCL-PUQ-SCL-JFK, $1006 (MC), about 13,000 MQMs, ($1085 for Oct 3 - 4, 10 hours in PUQ)
