The UC ATL-LHR flight is about an hour longer, which could provide more sleep time and it gets in 20 minutes earlier which would give me more time in the Revivals Lounge before meeting my onward ground transportation.

I flew D1 to LHR in December. Last experience with UC was 3 years ago (MCO-LGW-MCO on a 747.

I am leaning towards UC (if the SDC is available).

Any thoughts from recent travels? D1 or UC?
You can't SDC on an international ticket unless all the international portions have already been flown. (Or is that one of the unpublished DM privileges?)
