Hmm...well, at this point, it looks like it will be LHR where I'll have my yule-tide layover. I was waiting for the flights to work out a bit better, and they did--this option puts my in C the whole way cuts, out the need for an intra-Europe flight, and allows for more possibilities if things open up later on (this is an award).

From what I read up, last year in London, there was a bus that ran the Heathrow express route from the airport into Paddington Station. If there isn't, I guess I'm stuck at the airport, but we'll have to see how things come together closer to the date, I suppose.

Despite the lack of public transportation, it seems like there is more happening in London than there necessarily would be in FRA, right?
