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.)

IAD-MSY for $600

Miles Needed: N/A
Required Spend or Budget: $507 PQD
Available Travel Dates: Best for me would be Nov 27/28/29, Dec 4/5/18/19. Day trips only please.
Required Metal or Codeshares Okay: N/A
I need $507 PQD to re-qualify for Platinum. Routing doesn't really matter, but should be doable in a simple IAD-IAH-IAD like route. I want to spend as little as possible over the minimum 507. Having trouble finding anything more than $500 PQD or under $550 PQD. Thanks for any help.
