Thanksgiving Mileage Run?

Need 11K miles from SFO, OAK or SJC, doesn't matter to where, Thursday 11/22 back Sunday 11/25. Is that like a unicorn?

Thursday departure holds potential. Sunday? Not so much...

I'd aim for late Saturday night, or else the next valley will be Tuesday AM.

SFO-ICN 11/22-11/25 $827 : 11328 miles. Asiana/UA

Not quite 11K, but SFO-LHR 11/22-11/25 $1092 : 10736 miles.
