Need 2,500 Miles From MSP by Yr End
Can anyone tell me the least expensive way to earn 2,500 MQM’s on Delta while flying out of Minneapolis (MSP)? Ideally, I could turn right around and come back, and available to leave MSP starting this Friday. Thanks!

I'd suggest running a search from MSP to the various UA and AA and LCC hubs (LAX, DEN, ORD, SFO, LAS, IAH, DFW etc). I'll bet you find some options under $100. At 500 miles per segment you could do one trip if you connect in SLC or DTW in one direction.

2,500 miles is easily achieveable by flying to the west coast from MSP. MSP-LAX is 1,500 miles One Way, 3k round trip. MSP-SEA is 1,400 one way, 2,800 Round Trip. You could also go down to Florida, I'm seeing MSP-FLL for $336/round trip on 12/16 which would get you 2,800 mqms.
The FLL Run would likely be on the same aircraft, leaving MSP at 9 AM, into FLL at 1:45 PM, departing FLL at 3:20 PM and into MSP at 6:25 PM.
