So the first two legs of this are on UA metal, right? Earning is fine, but no upgrade possibilities.

Yes. UA to and US back. I haven't been at this game long enough to know about upgrade possibilities. Just having fun with the challenge of finding <5cpm.

Plenty of availability at this price on all-US segments all throughout October and November, sparse into December.

PIT from $260
BOS from $240
NYC from $212

I am having a hard time using ITA to get the SJU-CLT-DCA segment to come up. I see DCA-IAH-SJU but it is forcing an American return through MIA.

Relatively new to this mileage running thing, but I've got a few of these LAX>EWR>SJU>IAD>LAX runs booked and am curious to know why there isn't any chance of an upgrade. I was hoping for one here or there. Thanks! I'm flying on UA metal and will be UA gold when I start doing these. Thanks!

No upgrade on UA metal if you are USAir elite... It's a mixed itinerary.

Still open for November. You lose about 700 miles just going through CLT, though there is an option to go DCA-PHL-CLT-SJU and then back through Charlotte.
