This route runs from Minneapolis (MSP) to London Heathrow Airport (LHR). Nonstop award space in the data comes from a single airline: Delta. The Airbus A330-900neo appears on those nonstop award segments. Nonstops make up less than 1% of the award options in the data; the rest connect.
Booking Minneapolis–London with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The cheapest economy seat is a partner award on a Delta nonstop, so the lowest price is also the quickest trip. Watch the cash: about $319 in taxes and fees, well above the route's typical economy taxes, so more points and less cash can win. Measured against economy, premium economy is about 3.2 times the points and business about 5 times.
Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is cheapest in economy at 12,500 points on a Delta nonstop. American AAdvantage wins premium economy at 40,000 points and business class at 57,500. Air Canada Aeroplan's 75,000-point first-class fare connects; treat it as mixed-cabin until each segment's cabin checks out. The other eight programs include United MileagePlus, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and Qantas Frequent Flyer.
In the current award data, only Delta shows nonstop space on Minneapolis–London, but as a SkyTeam member its seats also price through alliance partners, not just Delta SkyMiles. If you're open to a stop, the better-priced connecting awards in the data run through Chicago, Amsterdam, and Toronto. The lowest economy award here is a SkyTeam partner booking: the Delta nonstop through Virgin Atlantic Flying Club.
At the London end, London City (LCY) starts at 34,700 points in economy, well above the route's 12,500-point economy floor, so it's only worth it when Heathrow is sold out. For another option from Minneapolis, Amsterdam prices from 15,500 points at last check. Confirm which London airport the award uses before transferring points.
