There is a mileage run thread on the forum. Why not you look in there for suggestions?

There is a whole thread here on the forum for Mileage runs that offer good value I suggest reading that for starters

Exactly 80 XP can be had by flying from germany to anywhere with a connection in AMS or CDG (i.e. go somewhere without a non-stop flight) in economy one direction and business the other before the end of the year.

not quite true...., at least not within Europe.
ger - ams = 5 in eco
ams - eur = 5 in eco
eur - ams = 10 in biz
ams - ger = 10 in biz = total 30 x 2 = 60 XPs.....

Eurobiz earns 15 XP not 10...

Hi, I just did a run 2 weeks ago CDG-AMS-BER in eco for 20XP and then the return in Business for 60XP.

It can be done easily, now it depends on what you think is the limit for not expensive.

Yep this.

I should add to be complete that the "anywhere" must not be in France if connecting through CDG.

I’ve just done LHR to MIA in Premium Economy with AF and got 100XP. Take advantage of Flying Blue double XP until the end of the year. Until next year, they’ve got 50% bonus XP for AF and KL marketed flights until June.
