6Kmile UA PremExec run from MSP
(note: be nice to the newbie)
subject sorta says it all. I need ~6,000 miles to make PremExec (with the new 42k min) this year. just made Premier last month, but with my thanksgiving trip thursday getting me 4k actual, not trying for PremExec needing only 6,000 miles seems sorta lame. I was on the UA site for hours last night but everything was really expensive. maybe I'm going about it the wrong way. any suggestions? |
Have you checked routes where Vanguard, Sun Country and Airtran compete out of MSP? That's usually the best place to start, i.e. routes that are low fare compete. Maybe a double connect from MSP to Florida.

OK, found one, MSP-DUS-MSP on 12/30-12/31 for $477, 13138 miles (plus some of that might go 100% bonus when I click over to PremExec; that's with the 25% premier bonus) for $0.036 per mile. oh wait, I forgot about the kiss-... bonus. if I make PremExec I get an even bigger kiss-... bonus! I think (correct me if nec) as PremExec I get a 100% bonus on all travel from 1 May to 31 Dec instead of the 25% bonus I'd get as Premier.
woohoo! Sydney here I come! First class, even! |
According to travelocity, there is a Sat night stay requirement for that fare. Fly out on Fri, return on Sun, and it doesn't have to ruin your holiday.
