With executive bonus (i.e., if you already have LH status), any one return in F from FRA to USA a destination west of the Mississippi River will yield enough miles to reach FTL, so you just need to find one bargain A-fare every two years. Not a huge challenge these days if you have some patience and keep an eye on the fare specials...
