That's why they had to be forced to actually take it over in the first place. They didn't want it once they saw what was going on, however the actions of the people charged with turning it around have been somewhat mystifying.
The phrase "rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic" could have been designed solely for bmi in the last couple of years.
Cat 3, it will be a very sad day if/when (obviously when...) bmi ceases to exist as an individual airline. Even before I joined I had a massive soft spot for bmi and I've loved trying my best to help in any way I can to try and return the company to something near it's best. Unfortunately that effort has seemingly been completely in vain.
I cannot describe how galling that feels. Multiply that company wide and it's amazing that anyone will actually bother to turn up tomorrow. Of course we will, but by god it's tempting.
