Also check to see if the airline offers an adoption discount. Northwest does (I think it's called "Special Delivery" or something like that), and it could either result in an upgrade to business class or a discount on coach, I'm not exactly sure how it works. We are planning to adopt a SN child from China who may be in the 2 to 3 y/o range when we bring him home, so we most definitely plan to get him his own seat. Even if we hold him most of the time, having 3 across to stretch out will be priceless and worth every penny.
The prices you quoted sound about on par with business class round trip. That's how DH travels to SE Asia for work, so I had to convince him that to do that on this trip is not smart money management.... but it sure would be nice to get an upgrade! I can dream, can't I?
