I agree, it is a different proposition. However, it was a deal struck within IAG with employees. As Aer Lingus, IAG engage in a friendly and generous manner. BA staff are treated like the enemy. When a group are acquiring another airline for a billion, they shouldn't need to treat one section of staff so shabbily to fund it. I suspect that a lot of slots will be quietly pushed over to the Spanish arm, with Heathrow and Gatwick grateful for the business. I'll reproduce the comment from the Telegraph article here. There's a lot of underhand business going on here. It's time people wake up.
