Travelling to the US in-between Saturdays

Wondering if anyone has any tips for me - having difficulty getting a reasonable fare to the US with no Sat night stay.

Trying to get to Seattle, leaving Sun 10th March and returning on Sat 16th March. Have family wedding commitments on Sat 9th and Sun 17th so I'm stuck with those dates.

Any ideas? I'm in Dubai so I found a decent economy fare (£1000 for a midweek departure DXB-JFK direct, then £600 for an internal AA to seattle) but doesn't work for me as I'll already be in London!

Are there any tricks I'm missing here?

I'm getting £3000 in WT+ on BA which is a last resort (DXB-LHR-SEA-LHR-DXB).

Appreciate any suggestions! (Apart from changing my schedules )
