For each request, please include the following information:
Departure Airport:
Miles Needed:
Required Spend or Maximum Budget (choose one, and state the value):
Available Travel Dates:
Required Metal or Codeshares Okay:
Route(s) You've Already Searched:
Do you have a Chinese Visa (Yes/No)?
For each response. Please quote the original request. DO NOT START A NEW THREAD.
There are many good fares to China (PEK or PVG). If you have a Chinese visa, these options will be provided.
If your requested PQM is in a few thousand, please give a more accurate amount. You will get fewer options with a roundup number (eg, 5000 instead of 4830; IAD-SFO nonstop will work for the latter.)

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!

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!
