Well...it's probably not the cheapest and slightly over budget....but ATL-LAX-ATL-LAX-ATL is probably the easiest way and can be done within a 24 hour period.

Delta 110 Coach (T)
ATL 8:14am 12 Nov 2005
LAX 9:56am 12 Nov 2005

Delta 1746 Coach (T)
LAX 11:00am 12 Nov 2005
ATL 6:09pm 12 Nov 2005

Delta 1126 Coach (T)
ATL 7:48pm 12 Nov 2005
LAX 9:36pm 12 Nov 2005

Delta 560 Coach (T)
LAX 12:25am 13 Nov 2005

SkyMiles earned = 7788; MQM earned = 7788

Total ticket price (including taxes/fees): $576.80 (USD)
