CO is not known to generally offer cash-only upgrades on BusinessFirst-marketed flight like EWR-TLV. You could try to use the Star Alliance upgrade approach if your ticket is Y or B fare class.
Unfortunately, my title doesn't have CEO in it, so my company will pick the cheapest option for travel. The lowest economy r/t pricing is around $1600, but the Y/B is like $4300, so there's no way they'll do it.
I'll just buy a UA ticket and hope to get UDU on the SFO-EWR segments. EWR-TLV I'll have to go coach. I hear it's always a full flight and I'm sure there are no shortage of customers who would pay the BF fare for a flight like EWR-TLV.
Thank you all for your kind help!
