AA MR out of NYC need 10k EQM

Can do it anytime during the week but would prefer to do it ASAP with same day or red eye return but avoid HNL.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

try 2x jfk-sfo or lax w/way via sfo...look at sea also..

10k is the minimum? not 9800 or other?

do you have a date that you need to have it done?....deal breaker price?

2x sea will do it....cheaper fares are 2 weeks out....

I think the SEA route appears to be the best route at the current prices. First Class for 1.5x miles at 980 seems like the best route doing the AA Plat Challenge? Thoughts?

Thanks again to a newbie.

you are doing the plt challenge?

it requires 10 k eq points....so, if you have 0 now, you need a 6667 mi flights at the 1.5 pt/mi fare....sea won't get it unless you do sea-lax/sfo-jfk which is pricy....

or 20k on the cheap fares....

when id you start the challenge? what flights have you done since & how many eqp were earned....

your on line aadv summary should give the info....

just to make sure, you paid a fee & started the challenge on the 1st or 16th of what month?.....

if not, post the deal details...

also, do you have elite status on aa?

Started on 10/16

Currently have LGA>DFW>SEA SEA>ORD>LGA 10/13 on Hold in First for $980

netting me 8253 EQM

I do not have status with AA currently.

Any cheap suggestions on the extra 1750 EQM needed to complete the challenge. Would like to do it before the SEA run

Thanks
