Was considering a combination of perhaps using KLM or Air France and a U.K. starting flight to get some extra TPs then perhaps just doing an east coast flight and a two stop Delta flight across the country. But it does seem like a lot of faff!
Am not sure of the math tbh as some of those domestic DL flights only earn like 5 or 10 tier points so you may need to do the math so it's actually worth it in terms of the number of tier points you'll earn to see if you should split your jouney up. Generally the higher the cabin the higher the tier points you earn. Maybe also add a flight say to LAS or DAL or SEA from the West Coast and go for a few days and then you'll earn some tier points at least.
