If one of Europes biggest and most successful airlines can't make bmi work why do you think IAG/BA can?
If it is slots that BA/IAG want why take the baggage of a basket case airline?
I would still expect DLH to look towards concentrating on a streamlined version of mainline; getting shot of Donington Hall and letting Germanwings take over where bmiBaby leave off. The baby website already redirects to the Germanwings website if there is no valid baby flight....
