Extra Miles

Is there anyway i can get extra miles for a flight from Minot to El Paso? I will be taking this flight in September and would like to get as many miles as possible is there any bonus promotions?
Thanks

You'll be disappointed to learn that NWA doesn't go to ELP; and CO flights will likely reduce your accumulated RDM...

Look to DL, and study the Milage Run Discussion forum stickies.

Why would a CO flight reduce your RDM? EQM, I can understand, but not RDM.

I should still get miles for it though right? Seeing as it is a nwa partner.

Not sure if it is possible, but try to route Minot-MSP-DTW-IAH-ELP? Or sticking MEM between MSP and IAH would add miles as well and maybe maximize the number of miles on NW metal for EQMs.
