SMF MR Help Please
Hey Everyone,
I am new here. Due to traveling for work and attending weddings this year, I find myself much closer to attaining elite status than before. I am about 5600 miles short of reaching silver on OnePass and am considering doing a mileage run.
I have been doing some reading here and doing some fare searches using the airline websites and Yahoo Travel (the ITA website doesn’t seem to be working for me). I have been looking but haven’t been able to get anywhere close to the 3 cents per EQM that someone posted as the magic number.
Continental has hubs at IAH and CLE and I did some looking but I am not really sure what I am looking for (i.e. valid routing and destination cities which yield a lot of miles but are cheap to fly to/through). Can anyone please suggest some possible itineraries for me?
I would like to leave either Friday night (red-eye) or Saturday morning and return on Sunday. If the destination is interesting I am not opposed to staying the night and doing some sight seeing. Also, if there are more options in the Bay Area I am not opposed to flying out of OAK/SFO/SJC.
Thank you for your help!
