The other option is to book economy, accept and pay for an upgrade offer in the app, and then the ticket goes to J and earns 3x EQMs. You don’t earn any EQDs on the upgrade amount, but that doesn’t matter for OP.
I’m going to guess that OP could do a couple transcons (plus in-app upgrade offer) for less that OP’s budget.
