Thanks Dux, driving to San Antonio might be the way to go. Everything I'm pricing out of IAH is $250 plus. I realize I can't get 11,000 out of one trip, but I only need 5,500 because of the double mile promotion. This could be done in one trip but will probably need two.</font>
SAT-TPA-MCI-TPA-SAT $161
6500 Base
6500 Double Miles
8100 Platinum Bonus
_______________________
21100 Total Miles
$0.0076 per mile
Note that this is just with the most direct routing.
Also note that you could snag an EFD-SAT flight for $73 and pick up another 4000 base miles.
(It is possible that they might only double the actual mileage flown on the EFD-SAT segments rather the minimum 500 miles/segment.)
