Eastwest seeks good ideas!

Dear FT friends,

I will be going to a wedding next month and as I am not thrilled about the impending union, I thought to make a pseudo-mileage run out of all this. Might as well get something good from it all, eh? I have searched for a good run and am mostly coming up blank. Can you help me? A small treat from Alaska and my humble gratitude will be your reward.

The ground rules:
Must leave ANC the night of Sept. 6.
Can return anytime on Sept 9 or 10.
Ultimate destination is DEN (preferred) but can fly into COS if needed.
Segments are good, miles are better.
Collecting for OnePass.
Am nervous about flying HP as I really have to be there!

Thank you in advance for your help.

Well, the cheapest fare out of ANC on CO is a nonrefundable $217 + tax Q fare to MEM with almost no restrictions.
It does allow a stopover in Seattle which you could use to fly into DEN on HP for $198.

You mean to not use the second coupon onto mem?That would be easy to catch because that flight is a direct flight to iah just via sea if it's on co metal.Cheapist flight im showing is $212 mem-den on nw,ua,dl,co,aa.Thats probably the best your gonna do unless something cheap pops up via sea.

rcs85551, where did you find this fare? I can't find it on CO or Travelocity.

I thought of a ANC-SEA(stopover)-IAH-MEM-IAH-SEA-ANC routing, with SEA-DEN-SEA on another ticket. No segment (=miles) to throw away...
