I don't think I'll be taking this one up, because it requires overnights in both directions at DCA. On the inbound also requires a change to IAD. I used ITA Matrix. Pretty wide open for January. I'm sure someone will be able to use this.

Unless someone wants to buddy and go touring around D.C.

Use itamatrix. In the box underneath the origin and destination type dca

Also make sure to search calendar view 1-7 days of connection

FWIW, You will lose ~1200 miles if you book flight #137 from DCA as AA will give you direct routing miles (i.e DCA-HKG instead of DCA-DFW-HKG) even though you are connecting in DFW.

Can't replicate on aa, getting 1080 for the lowest.

aglp2k: So, if I'm flying AA LAX-ORD-PEK, I only get miles credit for LAX-PEK?

Only if it's the same flight number for both segments.

Perfect. Thanks.

Can find on google flights which directs to AA.com. Find on ITA and then use mutli-city on google flights. You can pay an extra $20 and fly back from DCA instead of IAD.

Thanks Skunker! I will look into that.

Is anyone actually going to be doing this?
