Yeesh, I'm sorry. MSY, CLE, CHI, SEA, PDX, and even BOI seem like decent options to me. As well as the northeast, I guess.

fares out of EWR seem to be a bit sucky at the moment. Was just on farecompare looking for a MR and there's nothing that's particularly cheap on *A airlines.

CLE would be great for a mini-DO
PDX weather would be best overall
BOI could be great if fares would cooperate

I will clarify that I believe it's possible to do a routing via the southern hemisphere on a miles, but not on a revenue tix.

FT Lurker, when you go home tonight, don't forget my letter. Posterboard is done, just waiting to add letter.
