NYC-BGI $233 on AA
NYC-BGI(Barbado) $233 on AA
NYC-BGI on AA
-no minimum stay
-travel 4/7-4/11
I'm thinking about doing a one-night MR, 4/8-4/9. The only way I can seem to maximize the miles is with one connection in MIA. Fare rules say unlimited online AA transfers permitted, but can't price anything out other than MIA or San Juan connections. Any ideas? thansk.

i know i sound like a newb, and i am...
but i thought that the maximum amount of segments is 8 (from multi-city). how in the world would you go about booking 20?
personally, i don't see how anyone can have platinum status for anything under 500-600 US dollars. correct me if i am wrong.

The following site has quite a few slots for you to enter city pairs.

In terms of the Platinum Challenge, it can be done for less than $400US (I did it and I 'overpaid'). Two round-trips, 10 segments per trip, 5 segments per direction.
