Lucknow → London priced from Lucknow, not redirected to Delhi: 18 ways to buy this seat with points. The cheapest verified business seat on the board is 45,000 via Copa ConnectMiles, and economy starts at 30,000. Air India flies LKO–DEL/BOM (Star feed); Oman Air nonstop to Muscat is Lucknow’s oneworld door; Saudia flies to Jeddah, and Air India Express, IndiGo, flydubai and SalamAir carry the rest of the Gulf. Programs whose alliance does not touch Lucknow are omitted, not routed through a flight that does not exist.

Air India via DEL (LKO–DEL–LHR), Star Alliance partner award

Aeroplan charges TOTAL DISTANCE FLOWN, so this row is banded on the realistic LKO–DEL–LHR routing (7,155 km) rather than the 7,134 km great circle: the Star itinerary out of Lucknow connects at Delhi. A longer routing can bump the band up one step. A CA$39 partner booking fee applies.
