Who cares. At that low a CPM a positioning flight and vacation will make it around 5cpm. Hard to have a fun run and earn that much at that good a price!

... and yes C&T you have as always our HUGE thanks for the time and effort and sharing with us all. It meas a TON and we appreciate it so.

You really should try harder. Delta.com playing very nice no prob. (this once) ;-)

So... I live in MSP and I'm primarily DL. Can I book the IAH to SJC, which has a layover via MSP, and just complete 2 of my 4 flight legs?

I have some eCredits to burn, and $158 is cheap to get me to SJC and back...

Thanks!
T.J.

Nope, once you miss the first segment the remaining ones will be canceled (barring extraordinary circumstances).

I put a couple of the UA ones on hold, thanks CokeandTaco. I definitely owe you a bunch of beer if we ever run into each other.

Thanks for clarifying. Since I have vouchers to burn with DL, I might just call UA and ask for a challenge. Then pay the $156.60 for the UA: MSP-IAH-SJC round-trip, departing Friday and returning Tuesday. Then, use my voucher with DL to get the SJC-ATL-IAH round-trip departing Sunday and returning Monday to sandwich them together.

Interesting... my total cost would be $156.60 + food and hotel, for a total of 5k DL MQM, 10k DL skymiles, and 5k UA PQM and either 5 or 10k UA AM, depending on whether they match my DL status.

Time to research who I know in SJC to help off-set hotel costs
