I believe someone managed to make 2 million (!) miles in a very easy way!
wow, I'd love to try that one, and I guess one could call it a real mileage run!!
Anyway, I recall a few years back when US Air was about to merge into AA and for a short while, if you were going to book an award ticket on AA, you could give them any amount of US Air miles to add TO the amount needed for the award and they would combine the two when booking it! Example: If you had say, 56,843 US miles and you were going to book 2 RT tickets on AA that needed a total of 100k to fly, they'd take the US miles and the remaining 43,157 AA miles from your account and you were all set! I thought that was pretty awesome and I was also able to take advantage of a few flights using the system at the time.
