Anywhere in the US for 5K?
I see that you can fly ITM-NRT in Japan one-way for 5K. But can you fly anywhere in the US for 5K? STS-SFO as an example is 10K, an 80 minute drive by car, and ORD-PHL, a 12 hour drive, can also be done for 10K.

To be clear, miles needed for award travel is not directly based on distance - the only time distance comes into play is in certain intra-region cases where short flights are discounted (i.e. the 700 mile threshold mentioned above).
The award chart is on the United website and pricing is based on region.
