Your choice to ignore the comments and I don't see what is idiotic about them. You and I have had previous exchanges before on this site about bmi slots, and I don't think I've been wrong (yet) on this subject. That said, there is always a first time. Can I suggest that you ask Nigel Turner whether there is any deal (either already complete or in the offing) to sell any/all BMed Heathrow slots to BA and let me know his answer?

The route rights were the key thing that bmi wanted from BMed. bmi already has enough LHR slots and the deal with BA will offset a large part of the funding that bmi had to inject into BMed at the time of the deal's completion. It is actually quite a smart way forward for bmi and I can't see any grounds for being critical of its actions.
