AA until LHR, then BA (admittedly, fake business product) LHR-FRA. If you don't like that, you can route through CLT and fly AA all the way (eg, SFO-PHL-CLT-FRA, avoiding BA fake business class)

Availability seem pretty wide open, even for 2 passengers, at least at the beginning of April. I didn't look at other times..

Train from FRA to Berlin is easy. Better than flying.
