I am coming up 6400 miles short for 1K status on United.

Departure Airport: ORD
Miles Needed: 6400
Maximum Budget (choose one, and state the value): maybe $1000
Available Travel Dates: Week of Dec 17
Required Metal or Codeshares Okay:

Route(s) You've Already Searched: SAN or LAX are preferred as I have business there, but cost is also important.
Do you have a Chinese Visa (Yes/No)? Yes, but would prefer to stay domestic even if two or three trips.

I know I can get 3400 RT to SEA from ORD, but hoping there is some routing at lowest from one trip I could do over 1-2 days to meet 1K. First time I have been this close and would hate to miss a year of 'pre-boarding'.

Thanks for any suggestions!

HighZ Dec 10, 2018 1:14 pm

I did check ORD-BOS-SAN - overnight in SAN - SEA-ORD for 6200 miles for $1100.

Welcome to FlyerTalk ^ It looks like this will take two trips.

SFO on the 18th, and ANC on the 25th. It's a few more miles than you need, but all in it's under $1,000. Happy MRing!

Take a look at flying to LIH!!!!! Plenty of miles, one trip, under budget, warm weather.

I would like to get this done in one day with as few legs as possible. I think the challenge is cost since it's the holidays.
