Mileage Run
New to FlyerTalk. Delta Gold trying to get Platinum by eoy. Got the Delta reserve card for 10k miles. Best mileage runs from Atlanta to get to 2800 miles?

Won't be cheap because you're perilously close to last-minute, gotta-fly-at-any-cost territory. I'd look at western U.S. destinations, much cheaper than either Europe or Latin America. I see LAX pricing out at $516 for Christmas departure, return Tuesday the 27th. More miles than you need, of course. You should be able to beat that price with a little keyboard pounding.
However, in your other post on the same topic, you say you need 2,000 miles, not 2,800, which should be easier/cheaper; and that your budget is $250, which you didn't mention here and which may be impossible. Which version should we trust?
