It's not over yet and I don't reckon it will be until the Spring. Some questions:
Why, when BMI bought BMed and promptly sold their LHR slots straight back to BA for exactly what they paid for BMed, did no-one make a fuss - particularly LH?
Which company are LHR slots most valuable to?
What would really kick it off would be LH executives having been spotted in Waterworld a few months ago but that would start to make it a conspiracy.
LH could make a tidy profit out of BMI if they really wanted to.
All IMHO, of course.
