hi Marc -
fuller reply will follow direct to you as I cannot believe that the rest of
the SHADO list will find details of open jaw flights from SEA to DNK via BHX
or LHR interesting.
But one thing I should say upfront is flights from LHR to BXH (that's
Heathrow to Birmingham International airport for those who don't think in
IATA airport codes) don't exist. London's too close to Birmingham for the
flights to be viable - at least, that's my guess for why the lack of
scheduled flights. However there is a flight from SEA via AMS to BHX which
gets you into BHX at 10am on Saturday. That's the good news. *But* I don't
recommend it because you'll have 1 hr transit time at AMS before the BHX
flight so if your incoming flight is delayed you'll miss the connection to
BHX.
More follows. Off list!!
Best regards,
Carly
