UA discounted business/first fares from NYC area?
I'm looking for cheap premium fares business/first departing Newark, PHL, LGA or JFK to random destinations. I don't like relying on upgrades at all (knowing united treats 1k's like losers).
I currently have 3 months off of work so plenty of time to travel.
I'd greatly appreciate any advice on good premium fares strictly on united airlines out of the above mentioned starting points.
I thank you all in advance!

Not the right forum..
As you have time off work - just choose your travel during off-peak elite times so upgrade is almost 100%. You won't find much competition on Saturday or Tuesday PM or Wednesday. Choose a non-common route. NYC-LAX/SFO not so wise. NYC-SEA/PDX/LAS and some Carib/L.America offers much better opportunities.
