Transcon Departures from BOS usually slightly cheaper and a separately ticketed domestic First JFK-BOS positioning flight would get you the additional 80TP to take you to 500TP.

If you book on a single ticket a connecting BOS-JFK-SFO Flagship First you would earn BOS-JFK 40TP domestic first plus JFK-SFO 210TP Flagship First so 500 TP round trip for circa £1450. Add a cheap positioning flight to BOS or catch the Acela up to Boston.

Probably cheaper options available and TP per £ spent isn't great but for comfort and simplicity a Transcon Flagship First is an option to consider.

Looking for this route but the cheapest I can find BOS-JFK-SFO one way is £1360 or return £1910. Which dates did you try with?
