You can go nuts on this one if you wish - can stretch it to 1,020 TPs if needed
Interesting - thank you! Works 1 July to 31 Aug - good for anyone who likes extreme heat :-)

I see JFK is available for 1163 with BA/AA in the same date range

I'm assuming the 1,020 TP version involves HEL? Booking using multitrip on aa.com?

(SAT or OKC possible or just LIT?)

Is OTP-PHX available for under 2K again? Couldn't see anything in Matrix
Same here - can anyone throw in a screenshot please ?

I'm already on a MAN-PHL-DFW-LIT-ORD-MAN in a few weeks for a Memphis/Nashville run.

A September MAN-SAT with a HEL thrown in would fit nicely for an Austin run too ! (does the HEL allow any stopover ?)

If you're looking for LA...

I am looking at a trip and found this almost too good to be true: from Zagreb to Burbank (not LAX) for 1,261. 680tps if my maths is ok. You do need to put up with a night in Vegas outbound which will be a dreadful hardship to most...

Not to mention making the trip ALOT more expensive, especially if you have my talents at the table

And you can spend a night at the Zagreb Sheraton basement casino to warm up... the only casino where I have always managed to at least break even... probably since they give you 50EUR if you put down 50...

Now just need a TP run to somewhere relatively cheap during a stay on that trip that will earn me 600-1000TP.

Will put me above 2000TP nicely.

This can be upped to 720tps if you do the LHR-JFK and then PHX. It also works for SNA, LAX and LAS I think.
