My Second MR
Just booked (held) my second MR on AA. PHX/JAX/JAX/PHX Sept 6th $210 AI. So, is it a good enough deal? I'm just trying to retain my EXP status which won't happen with my business and personal travel this year.

How it is routed really determines if it is a good CPM.
For instance I can fly LAS-DEN-RDU-DEN-LAS for about 4.3K miles, or LAS-SFO-IAD-RDU-IAD-SFO-LAS for about 7.5k miles - a big difference.

Where did you find this great AA fare? (Really, have no advice to offer just clicked over because I'm moving to your neck of the woods...) If you've got a routing through ORD, it'll be better for mileage earning purposes...

I found the fare just by searching on AA.com. Someone had posted a similar fare from PHX to JAX on UA in the MR deals forum.
I've since searched ITA and changed the routing to PHX/BNA/MIA/JAX on 9/6 and JAX/DFW/PHX on 9/7. Although I have an overnight in JAX I get more EQMs!
Hope this helps.
