Lufthansa to Buy Remaining 20% Stake in BMI From SAS (Update1) - Bloomberg.com
“Should Lufthansa decide, on the background of its strategic analysis, to sell BMI completely or parts of the company SAS will under certain conditions receive an additional payment, within the next two years,” Lufthansa said.
It would seem from the above that no decision has been made. Why enter into a deal with SAS that is just going to cost you money? Indeed why buy SAS out if you are planning to pass bmi on?
I'm sure Flybe are considering their options in the same way DLH are. At the moment that is as far as it goes.
