I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a C award to LHR (nothing available to EDI). Looks like my options are ~$130 USD on a UA codeshare LHR-EDI. Is Go an option to EDI? Any other discounters from LHR to check into?
I understand the Caledonian Hilton is a treasure, SD1K. May I ask, were you able to book it as an award stay? I've decided to liquidate my MP account by half and may as well move the max number of miles to HHonors as possible and get some nice stays out of the bargain.
