UA: BWI-SAN, $330 @ 4.63cpm

The K-bucket for BWI-SAN on UA is available. At a best of 4.63cpm, I acknowledge this isn't a great MR, especially when I made this same run last year multiple times at 2.78cpm to 3.40cpm. However, with minimum spending requirements, this can be good opportunity to start accruing early in January. Still, I expect N or G fares to be available in the future, so keep an eye out in the coming months.

Routing rules:

Code:

ROUTING  847 FROM-TO  BWI-CLE/CHI/EWR/WAS-CHI/DEN/HOU-SFO/      
                      LAX-SAN*

The 4.63cpm figure is routing through EWR and SFO both ways, but I don't recommend it because of the 7-hour layover in SAN. Try routing through LAX instead:

SAMPLE: Friday, January 24 at $330 for 7,019mi or 4.70cpm

UA 4249, BWI 09:35 - 10:31 EWR
UA 1672, EWR 11:48 - 15:20 SFO
UA 0417, SFO 17:09 - 18:37 SAN
UA 6342, SAN 20:38 - 21:29 LAX
UA 0743, LAX 22:27 - 06:30+1 EWR
UA 4837, EWR 07:51 - 09:05 BWI

Notes:
- There is more availability if you return directly from SAN-EWR but will bump your cpm to 5.02
- R is practically non-existent in Jan, there is more in Feb but unlikely to be useful for this MR schedule
