The mileage run I blogged earlier today is available for the reverse route, too!
I found it available for the same dates: December 10 and 11.
Here’s how it breaks down:
- Date: Wednesday, December 11 or Thursday, December 12
- Route: PHX-LAX-JFK-SEA-JFK
- Cost: $298.40 in Main Cabin
- MQM: 6502 (4.6 CPM)
- MQD: $240
Book Using Chrome Incognito Mode, Safari, or Firefox
I received lower MQM totals using non-Incognito mode Chrome.
However, everything was consistent when I used:
- Safari
- Firefox
- Chrome Incognito mode
Keep that in mind — and save your itinerary (print as PDF, clip to Evernote, etc) as proof in case your MQM don’t correctly credit after your trip.
