Help - UA MR from LAX
Looking to earn about 5,000 EQM (that I plan to double) on a weekend (red eye) MR out of LAX on United. Have found LAX-BWI (also qualifies for the DC bonus) but fare is now $290. JFK is $253 but doesn't include the DC bonus).
Any other options I am overlooking?

Check out ONT-JFK, it will get you an extra 1000 (2000 with bonus) and 2 added segments. I've also found that this run is sometimes less expensive than just LAX-JFK, even though the routing and times are the same.
