If the $800 fare is one way, don't do this before finding a return ticket. You might be shocked at how expensive one way international tickets can be, and many countries won't admit you without a return ticket (although typically it needn't be a round trip).

If you fly BOS-JFK on separate tickets, be sure to allow lots and lots of time to retrieve luggage and check in for your MU flight. Chances are that if you're late the ticket will be cancelled and lose all value.
DL will through check to MU across tickets. Also with new ST rebooking they'll rebook your MU ticket. Unlike OW. ST seems to actually be finally integrating.
