Prospero's guide to using ITA matrix in post 3 (here along with these ideas, might come in handy.

For overnight trips remember to check BA and Iberia for their flights and hotel option as well, can get hotel for almost no extra cost at times
Need 80 TPs or less
Club Europe return somewhere close by is best - DUB, AMS and JER usually cheapest. AMS and JER easier than DUB for an immediate turnaround. The BA.com low fare finder can be very useful.
If you need as few as 45 TPs you might consider booking economy flights and hoping for a proactive online upgrade offer - but they're not guaranteed to materialise (so not one if you have no more time left in your TP collection year)
Or a slightly more interesting fun run
Need 85-120 TPs
Iberia flights via MAD to regional Spanish airports will get you 120 TPs as the domestic Spanish flights are 20 TPs in business. Under 300 including hotel can be available. Check BIO, GRX, VLC, BCN, SVQ etc. Example here
Need 125-160 TPs
Take a look at the shorthaul plus routes earning 80 TPs each way in business listed in the first post (here) MLA, IST, HEL and RAK are usually available. If time sensitive take a look at BA flight and hotel option to HEL, where you can usually get the last BA flight out on a Saturday, airport hotel and first return Sunday for well under 500.
Alternative options include positioning to JER and flying JER-LGW-XXX (AMS usually works well and avoids switching airports)
Need more than 160 TPs
You'll most likely be heading north then - OSL or VLL via HEL will get you 240 TPs, as will JER-LGW/LHR-HEL e.g. LHR-HEL-OSL for 520

Hi there,
Please help me:
Looking for a TP-run between now and the 12th of July. Need 240 TP's.
Based in AMS but start anywhere in Europe is fine.
I tried many variations in the Matrix but can't find anything below €3,- per TP.
Thanks in advance!

Excellent. You will need a nightstop in RAK of course, but hotels are relatively cheap. Also have a look at booking it as a BA holiday with the hotel as sometimes the whole package can be cheaper than if you book the flights and book the hotel separately.

Sometimes cheaper than the flights only indeed! Though unlikely if the booking is already in I class.

Any to runs in Far East?
Hello, looks like I have just missed the Malaysian deal Bkk to del at 369. Now shows up as 625. Any more tp runs in the region ? Looking for June

Malaysian deals from BKK (and TPE) run approx. every two weeks for two weeks (that is 2 weeks deal, 2 weeks off). Just wait and it should come back, at least that has been the case for the past 6 months.

Probably new shorthaul+ route for the list. LHR-KEF is a new announced route (mentioned here) for this winter and is 1180 miles. Should therefore be 80 TPs each way in CE. Due to start 25 October this year. I will add it to the list of shorthaul+ routes in the wiki

First of all, thanks to KARFA for maintaining the wiki, an extremely useful resource.
A quick thought occurs though... would it be helpful, in future versions, to also include the date on which the particular TP run was included ?
e.g. instead of:
0.74/TP | 460 | 620TPs | LAX-MCO-MIA-PTY PTY-MIA-LAS-LAX | P/P/I/I/P/P | chris1979 | aa.com
we could have
07-May-15 | 0.74/TP | 460 | 620TPs | LAX-MCO-MIA-PTY PTY-MIA-LAS-LAX | P/P/I/I/P/P | chris1979 | aa.com
For me, that would make it easier to focus on the ones most recently added (and thus most likely to still be available...)
As I say, just a thought...
