So i was thinking of two options -

1. Buy a revenue Economy class fare for my wife and use miles to upgrade the return leg for both of us to Biz
2. Use the miles to buy my wife's economy class ticket

Complicating matters is the fact that only *A flying to LAX from India i could find are SQ/Lufthansa/TK. What should be my modus operandi for this ?
