Oh I really like this one a bunch and a big HT for the tweet from Avion Addiction for the heads up. There are many ways. You can do this an overnight stay or a redeye. You can do this after work Friday and not miss work. You can do this one back to back days and crush it with a positioning flight to IAH and do back-to-back runs. Plus it is cheap! Keep in mind SUB 4CPM for MQMs puts this in my book as a SOLID Skymiles2015 run! Here are the numbers:
Cost $196
5,205 MQMs at 3.7CPM
Bookable on Delta.com
DM yields a very nice 11,712 Skymiles per CWSI.net!
Getting $117 Skymiles rebate back, this year, makes this in my book a net cost $79 to get 5k MQMs! That, my friends, is an amazing value. If I were not booked (no overbooked) this year I would do this one 2 days back to back.
EDIT: As always, check both directions. You CAN work this FROM LAX to IAH too for almost the same price!
In on this one for December 5th and the again on December 6th, both haver overnight flights back to IAH and I’ll be positioning, with FlexPerks the morning of 12/5 and the afternoon of 12/7
