J by the way would be F for you dom flights so is $250 still exp?

lucky you - near on impossible to get dom j tickets anywhere but the US for that price

regarding taking time off work..

you could fly out to europe in Y , buy a RTW ticket , do the 4 flights in europe and head back to USA, (holiday 1 Value of flights $3500+) then do your 6 segs in USA ( how ever many holidays you want this may be carib/ mex etc, then off to YVR for Sking etc. (so maybe 2 holidays value at least 2K) then fly off to Asia for (holiday 4 value lots (cx flights aren't cheap)
continue to Europe picking up your cheap Y rtn ticket you bought out there and upgrade with your shiny new top tier status..

that what i was going to do orig when i thought about the time off thing but in the end i thought stuff it- why work all the time, are you here to work or enjoy your limited time onthis planet?
