Cap10,

IF LH buys into SAS they will probably buy Longhaul, but also at least the CPH hub. Longhaul is not really worth anything without feed.

My question is this: Will LH buy all of SAS or will they settle for CPH plus the assorted longhaul??

Another theory is that they only want the shorthaul feeder traffic as they plan on Berlin being their third longhaul hub in Germany.

Either way I would prefer that LH buys us as this will end all political maneuvering and then we can run this shop as a business.

In short I think that shorthaul is the ticket if you want to be sure of getting into LH, longhaul is probably a sure way, but not quite.

I predict that we will know this within 3-5 years. One reason is the arrival of the AOCs within 6 months. When that happens they have some nice little business units that they can divest at their choosing.

Regards,

Ramrise
