Scheduling in Covid
So I need to hit the road for work again, and need to go to the UK. I want to fly United for status (and Im based in ORD). We are thinking about the week of May 24th (if things are open), but when I looked for flights into Edinburgh, it essentially says that I need to fly to CLE, stay overnight, fly to EWR the next morning. Fly to FRA that night, and have a 7 hour layover in FRA before flying to EDI.
Ignoring the ridiculous routing, anyone have any idea what UA is planning on international travel when things start to open up again?
