going to buenos aires
my wife and I are traveling to B.A. in the fall. Are there any suggestions on how to increase the potential to upgrade to first class, either via FF miles or cash and still keep the fares in an earthly orbit. k.

from IAD i think the only non stop is on United, AA flys from jfk and mia
CO from EWR,,thru Houston.... You should check United forum and South America Forum there is lots of info on BsAs..
I only have some knowledge of AA
possibly you can ask to move this post to either United or South AM forum where you might get more responses

IAD to Buenos Aires
I just made this trip on United and while we paid $1100 RT each to travel in their Winter--(it was still great btw), I traded for 4 SWU vouchers which got us both upgraded to C class and it was WELL WORTH it. Got greta full meals, comfy huge seats and I slept about 7 hrs each way! Just try

Absolutely not worth it to travel F from IAD to EZE in United. C class is almost the same, dont go for it! Do a search and check for differences between F and C class in UA 767-300...
