LAX-LIM-LAX on LA is about 4167 mi each way (according to Great Circle Mapper).
10417 mi roundtrip, including cabin bonus.
9.2 cents/mile
Even with Plat bonus, it's pretty high for a mileage run.

Yes, LA D fares earn 1.5 Q-points per mile, so you'd get (4167*2)*1.5=12501 q-points.

A good fare, and it can be counted toward OWHOM if you travel Sep-Nov.

Question Re: Lima, Peru

Hi I wanna take that as a Mileage run. But i am holding a Filipino Passport though I am U.S.A. Resident ( Green Card ). Do I need to have a visa to be admitted in Peru? Coz in Canada, a green card is enough for you to enter the country. And how's the money conversion rate is it $ US 1 = 3.50 peruvian money? Is it expensive there? What's the best place to see in Lima, Peru? Thanks guys

No, Peru is most decidedly NOT expensive. Think Thailand cheap. ^

The best place to see is not in Lima, but a short hop to Cuzco, and Machu Picchu from there.
Very little in SA comes close, despite the tourism
