UA is actually leading the charge on this with a $238 N fare that transits IAH in both directions for some wicked mileage earning. Not as good as the past $171 SMF-PHL fare, but still very good.

Anything under $300 is good from EWR-SMF and vv.

yea in the past i would do this, but the only tickets i am flying anymore on UA are those already ticketed or future $5-10 SHARES specials.

if you are thinking about it check to see if you can pile on a few more miles by doubling back to NYC via LAX or SFO and IAH on the redeye. usually that connection is available for a marginal $5-7 more in taxes on these fares. i did not check the fare rules on this one so i'm not sure.
