bmed/bmi integration

it was a memo emailed to all staff following the meeting this morning.
Queens Building as of the 28th Oct, bmi uniform, bmi livery, creation of Mid Haul Fleet.

an extract.....

As with the flight deck community there is no risk of any job
losses. We will operate up to the end of the Summer timetable
all of the BMED routes with BMED aircraft and BMED crews.
After that, there will be a gradual integration of the bmi and
BMED cabin staff communities.

By 28 October 2007
o
The business will operate on a single bmi AOC (subject to CAA
approval).

o
All BA livery and uniforms will be removed and all uniformed staff will
be in bmi uniforms.

o
A new mid haul product combining the best of BMED and the best of
bmi will be agreed and will commence roll out across all bmi mid haul
services.

o
All services will transfer from T4 at Heathrow to T1.
o
The BA franchise will cease, but subject to regulatory approval, BA will
retain a codeshare facility on the former BMED routes.

o
Head office functions will be absorbed by bmi and BMED’s head office
at Hetherington House will close.

From 28 October 2007

o
A gradual phased integration of the bmi and BMED flight deck and

cabin staff will commence.
