What ff miles do you have now with the various freq flyer programs (before cc transfers)?
Nothing worth speaking on, unfortunately.
You have no hope of getting a ff upgrade. Other than full retail fare difference. Will be a long list of freq flyers with status ahead of you looking for upgrades.
USA and non USA airlines have very different upgrade polices

I’ll look into that route! Thank you!
So how are you getting back to USA? Ticket already booked?
One way flights can be very expensive. At times can be more than a return (but not always)
But keep looking!
