If you join the Ameniti program then you could get 2 business class seats for the price of 1 on Singapore Airlines or United.

ANA sometimes has business class specials www.fly-ana.com

Stay away from Ameniti. I asked them for two first class tickets to Hartford from Boise, they quoted me 7500.00. internet fare (UAL) was 2500.00. So I said no thanks I can get internet for 2500. so they said we can MATCH that but we'll upgrade you to first class at the gate, your ticket will be economy. I said no thanks and ran my $250 Ameniti card thru the shredder.

It's very hard to find reasonably priced business class fares. The way I fly business class is by redeeming my frequent flier miles. You can get business class space on EVA Air in their Evergreen Deluxe Class for a reasonable price. No matter what you decide to do for this trip, take a look at your airline use, sign up for frequent flier programs and consolidate most/all of your flying onto one airline and its partners.

PS, And I agree that Ameniti is worthless (at best).

We are in LA also and have used the IACE agency over on Sawtelle for biz class tkts to BKK on NWA-they've been running about $2500 with a change of planes in NRT and lie-flat seats. If you have UA miles, you can buy a tkt for around $1300 and upgrade with miles, 30,000 each way. Good luck!
