Bos to sfo tier point in first

Quick question, is there a domestic US first class route that is over the 3k miles barrier to earn 200 tp?

I was thinking Boston to SFO may scrape it but appears it is only 2750 miles.

Thanks!

Hawaii is your friend!

Try ATL or MSP to Honolulu.

Probably not cheap though ...

Thanks, looks like it might be a seasonal or at least didnt offer it for the dates i was looking at. Back to the drawing board i think!

As far as I know there isn’t.......unless direct from Boston to Honolulu then that would be or even Atlanta to Honolulu....... but if you break the trip with a stop over you get tier points per flight and not based on miles from starting to end point.....in other words miles and tier points for say Boston to Minneapolis and then tier points and miles Minneapolis to Honolulu......

That 3K miles TP earning change really hit me and I stepped down from Gold this year as I would do a lot of DL internal flights once state side. :-(

Know the feeling...i will just scrape keeping my AU this year but a quick weekend going in circles in first BOS-LGA-YUL-LGA-BOS does not work as well as it used to price wise.
