LGB to HND is $955 out 12/26 return 12/28. Choose a routing that earns enough miles, and remember to take the 500 mile minimum into account if you have status.

In order to organize the end-of-year crush of Mileage/Status/Challenge Run threads, the Moderators have decided to create a consolidated thread for the airlines with the most frequent requests. This is the thread for American Airlines.

Required Spend or Budget: as cheap as possible
Available Travel Dates: any time in december
Required Metal or Codeshares okay:
For each response. Please quote the original request.

Google has owned ITA for a while so the underlying tech is the same, just more user friendly (and a lot faster in most cases). It's handy for sharing certain itineraries as it allows direct linking to a finished search.
