Does anyone notice a similarity between Lufthansa's turning BMI into their own feeder, and what KLM did a decade ago with Air UK ? In fact it must be good for LH in the general scheme of Star Alliance revenue attribution. GLA-LHR-SIN or GLA-LHR-JNB hands most of the revenue across to another carrier. GLA-FRA-SIN, or GLA-FRA-JNB keeps the whole lot within the Lufthansa group overall figures.
