AA Status Run - Nice little earner

[serfty]

There's a few west coast trips that can earn 300 SC's for around $700/$800 rt. They're mainly on AS metal with AA flight numbers and book into F (not A or P).

ok i give up. I'm v new to this, so for the sake of sanity, pls tell me what me what routing this is - to achieve 150 SCs for only $300.

tried working the riddle, does Queens have something to do with LGA? Hare---ORD??? in a knot----- LAS??? maybe LGA-ORD-LAS?

Got a trip to the US coming up, and would love to do this to maybe twice go from NB to SG!

I assume you are using the AA.com US site?? You may not be able to see the status runs on the Australian site.

We used to have SFO-LAS but that's been diluted in recent times. I've found a very similar status run which some may already know about, but in true AFF style it wouldn't be any fun unless there was a riddle to work out! So to keep it simple, two Queens both got their Hare in a knot.

A couple of variations in the routing permutations available, best on offer is 150 SCs for $320 inc.

Had me stumped for a while, but I found 160 SC's (if my calcs are correct) for $US 317.40

OK, this one shocked me when I saw the price come up. AUD $1,056 for 840SC. Just a small variation on my riddle post gave a slightly lower cost but 120 more SCs..

Only problem now is I've got no plans to go to LOTFAP to put any of these into practice.

Hopless at cryptics but have have a US trip coming up June/July...I am guess LGA and ORD are involved, but other than that clueless

"Start in West to get with North in the South"

Any takers yet?

Clue 1: Think history, but not Civil War.
Clue 2: The "North" in the riddle is not a direction.

Clue 1 points to BOS
Clue 2 points to the Carolinas

Remember my riddle is separate to Goldmember's...maybe I should have started a separate post. His is East coast, mine...well the riddle says which side it starts from!

Serious?

Is this a variation on your original run?
