a difficult one, damned if you do and damned if you dont. Personally I would leave BMI (BA Express?) as a stand alone company, with BA s track record of running airlines outside of mother BA it wont be long before IAG managers are back to the table with a different attitude. The management are preying on fear to force through something that will plaque mainline for years. Let them try "express" they wont succeed and then the power struggle will be very different.
