Nice. I found $220 just now as well. A pleasant surprise while I was booking!
Also, the $213 is a great fare, but I believe EWR connection isn't give you extra miles since it's booked under the same flight #. (So it'd be like flying SFO-MIA direct, yes?
)
Found a great same day turn that likely utilizes the same aircraft via ORD. It's going to make for a long day, but around 6086 EQM, ~ 3.6 cpm. Not too shabby!!!

Nice!!! You are being quite helpful here-thank you.
It would be nice to find SFO-IAD-MIA both ways on a 0-2 day turn for maximum mileage.
Right now I have SFO-ORD-MIA/MIA-ORD-SFO redeye and then immediate turn once arriving in MIA for $220.
I have seen some IAD on the return but it required DEN on the outbound so everything kind of offset. IAD both ways would maximize mileage and time. Keeping my eyes open!
Looks like I got the $89 fare + $42.80 a/i in taxes.
Fare(s) Additional taxes and fees Fare total: 220.80 USD
178.00USD 42.80 USD

Thanks...
Just booked SFO-IAH-MIA-IAD-LAX-SFO for $223 AI w/ same day turn in January. Books in the G-Bucket all the way through on .bomb and via phore reservations @ 3.6 cpm. Great use for the VDB vouchers and requal in 2012! Heading to SJC now for ticketing.

I snagged two of these. It looks like they are going fast so I'd suggest quick purchases. Good start for 2012!

And I picked up 3 of these (2 in Jan, 1 in Mar) at $220.40 each, connecting through ORD outbound and IAD inbound, netting about 6,400 miles each MR, or ~3.5 cpm.
Excellent way to get a head start for the year.

True that. Excited for my two weekends in South Beach! Fares to South Florida have been higher for quite some time now. So this will be nice

Not sure if flying through ORD also garners the DEQM for the legs to/from SFO. Can't remember the last day to fly that promo. But if it does... ^

Looks like they coincide.
