some cheap options in comfort:

you can do SAP. SAL or GUA from LAX in business class through MIA for $500-$600usd in business for about half of what you need 13k EQM.

Another option is premium economy to Europe but even a route like LAX-LHR-CAI wont get your full 26K. Only country east of CAI really open is Maldives and You can’t get there for under $1500. LAX-CAI round trip in premium economy is $1100 on BA now. 22K EQM.

also look at PTY, SJU, TGU, LIM and BOG - all in J, from either LAX or DFW and route through MIA.

there may be good domestic J fares from LAX/DFW where you can do a day or two of mileage runs but you’ll have to look those up on google flights.

you won’t find anywhere in real F for that price and the EQM you need.
