Thanks to the OP and pigx5!

Welcome and we will see each other on those flights.
Oh great, a 1K MM to compete with for upgrades

See ya then (I think I managed to get slightly better timing on the LAX-SFO and vv segments, at least compared to what uaflr posted). Smaller layover in SFO in both directions

Thanks, guys! I used the same exact itinerary except that I am coming from SEA and it worked, too! Can anyone take me as a guest to the United Club? I'd be very grateful if you do! Many thanks!

Just booked SEA-ORD-MCI and back for $181 a.i. on AA, same day turnaround. O Class. 4.07 cpm (or even lower if you're an elite earning bonus miles)

I'm assuming American Eagle flights earn miles on AS Mileage Plan?

I will be joining you, just booked the same itinerary and used a $100 cert that was about to expire as a bonus! First pure mileage run for me...

I really want to go on this routing but for these dates the good seats are already taken. I also dont want to battle for UDU and it looks very unlikely. I cannot find this route on other days so I guess I am going to take LAX-IAH-MCI-IAH-LAX. It is 4.3 cpm. I have a $75 cert to use. Not bad and there is a good chance for upgrades on Saturday (LAX-IAH).

You can't get the late SFO-CLE flight because it doesn't exist in Mar.

1K MM doesn't mean anything to the new company.
