What's the point of earning 5,700 miles if you're not going to try and obtain elite status? I'm just a little confused. UA and AA are typically the easiest to do a true MR on. That is more than I would pay for 5,700 miles. With some work (namely using ITA) you can generally come up with some pretty decent mid-cons with some unusual routings for ~$200.
