Hello,
I am planning a trip to Jersulalem, Israel in the summer. I want to go first class, but it is very very expensive and i do not have many frequent flyer miles, only about 15,000 on delta. What is the easiest/cheapest way to earn enough miles to earn me a first class upgrade on Delta or El Al (i heard delta has a code chare agreement with el al)

I would even be willing to purchase an upgrade from someone. (if that is possible?)

As you can probobly already see, i am a 'newbie' in frequent flyer programs, and i need some assistance and guidence, so i would truly appreciate feedback.

Thanks Tons,
Michael
