Lufthansa considering a bid for TAP

Suspect it's more than "considering".....

The Star Alliance needs to keep a presence in south America, particularly in Brazil. TP would be perfect for this.

IAG has expressed an interest in buying TP (for the same reason), and JJ may shift from Star to Oneworld (as part of the merger with LA (Latam)).

So, no surprise there.

BD out, TP in?
