Heard from a BMI cabin crew member the other day that BMI are planning to re-introduce a business cabin on all routes later this year. Also crew are to get new uniforms.
What does this mean for the A319 that seat 144 PAX. Seems BMI have finally lost all sence of direction.
Teh A319 actually has a curtain which can be moved aft(I think it goes to about Row 9-Exit row is 10).
I think the purchase of BMED is great for bmi. I also think that BMED is not long for this world, and will be absorbed pretty quickly into bmi mainline, not too sure about the terminal situation @ LHR though.
If I were in charge of bmi, I would merge WW in as well, and bring back "BMI British Midland" branding, and yes the new uniforms would be good as well.
However HANDS OFF THE LIVERY-its the best thing about bmi, one of teh most beautiful colours seen in Europe in recent times, especially the "swoop" and the red engine tops! I like the monochrome Union Jack on the tail as well. Its a classic livery and MUST BE KEPT!
