Mr Geezer,
Why do you think that BMIbaby is a foregone conclusion regarding not being part of the Lufthansa network? We are all speculating at the moment and trying to second guess what may happen regarding this take over!
SMB may run 'Baby' on his own, especially with the selling of his shares and being cash rich. Nobody knows what may or may not happen! I'm sure we will find out in due course, probably next year I would imagine.
I just hope that we all get to keep our jobs no matter who owns us!
