I went through and read all of the links on the Best Fares issue and it seems everyone is of the opinion that it is a waste of money.

But the comment that reoccurs is that the same information is available to everyone - my question is where? I've checked Travelocity, Expedia, Orbitz, UAL, AA, LOT and I am getting $6,000 fares per person.

OK - Split your fare.

European Business Class and economy class are an identical product.

What you should do is to "nest" two tickets:

1) Business Class: USA-Europe1-USA
2) Economy Class: Europe1-Poland-Europe1

Find a european gateway with cheap business class fares; then sse a local booking engine for the second ticket (It'll probably be cheaper than a US site).
