This route runs from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Edinburgh (EDI). Nonstop award space in the data comes from a single airline: Delta. The Boeing 767-300 shows up on those nonstop award segments. Nonstops make up less than 1% of the award options in the data; the rest connect.
Booking Boston–Edinburgh with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The economy floor is a partner booking on a Delta nonstop, with no connection to trade off against the points. Expect about $34 in taxes and fees on top, below the route's typical economy taxes. The middle step, premium economy, costs about 1.5 times economy; business costs about 2.3 times, though the cheapest business award carries heavy fees. Flexible bank points can reach Air France-KLM Flying Blue; confirm the space first, since transfers can't be undone.
Air France-KLM Flying Blue takes economy at 20,000 points on a Delta nonstop. Alaska Atmos Rewards is cheapest in premium economy at 30,000 points and business class at 45,000. Among the remaining seven programs, Air Canada Aeroplan, United MileagePlus, and American AAdvantage are good places to cross-check. Premium economy and business class also price as partner awards, with one airline's miles buying another airline's seat.
The data has one nonstop award carrier on Boston–Edinburgh: Delta. Its SkyTeam membership means alliance partners can sell that seat too, not only Delta SkyMiles. Connecting awards near the price floor run through London, Dublin, and Amsterdam; they're the fallback when the nonstop is full. The economy floor is a SkyTeam partner award: Air France-KLM Flying Blue prices the Delta nonstop.
Neither Boston nor Edinburgh shows a same-metro alternate airport in the data, so the live price table above is the one to watch. Flexible on where you land? From Boston, Aruba starts at 8,900 points and Amsterdam at 10,000 at last check.
