Any help is appreciated. Hoping to keep cost reasonable on the booking.

Thank you!
Given your near-term timeframe for travel .... you might want to consider buying an F-class ticket on Alaska, as that class of ticket earns a 50% bonus on elite-qualifying miles. F may not be that much more expensive than Y, and you wouldn't have to fly the entire 8,000 miles.
