AC: YYC - DFW via YYZ, $338 AI, Mon-Wed until June 26.
Books into Flex K, so 100% EQM on AE and MP. With a little effort, can be routed through YVR for maximum earning. I booked YYC-YVR-YYZ-DFW return for $362 on Orbitz for total of 7,504 miles for $362 or 4.8 cpm. Not totally MR material, but decent ex-Canada.
Matched by AA on direct flights, fare expires April 18.

UA BOS-LAX $308-337 RT (4.7-5.8 cpm)
Not as good as the recent BOS-SAN deals but I've been watching pricing on this route for a trip I'm taking in October and the price has come down about $30-35 RT in the last few days. Widely available in Sept-Oct including Sat/Sun and same day redeye turns.
Direct - $153.90 o/w (2611 miles - 5.8cpm)
Better cpm - route through EWR and SFO - $168.70 o/w (3565 miles for elites -4.7cpm)

Many good fares from MSP to East Asia on AA (with some intra-Asian JAL segments).
Small additional savings with open jaws might be helpful for some.

Virgin America is offering a fare sale that has resulted in matches from UA out of SFO and LAX
The best deals are to FLL and ANC, but even there the cpm isn't great.
SFO-FLL direct can be had for $314 but has min stay
LAX-FLL for $328 with overnight turn on 6/1-2
More info/starting point at http://www.virginamerica.com/vx/booking/fare-sale

IND-ZFV/PHL is surprisingly low on UA. $69 ai o/w to/from ZFV and $83 ai o/w to/from PHL. Lots of availability. N fare, routing rules seem quite restricted.
This is not the best CPM but it's a cheap trip to EWR (by skipping the train part) for sure.
Edit: Also saw MCI for $89 and MKE for $86 to/from ZFV

PDX-SJU/BQN $390+ on UA. Routing thru EWR it does go down to below 5cpm. Found it in October, did not do further searching for other available dates.
