Germany's Lufthansa has inked an 'in principle' deal with BA/Iberia parent IAG covering the sale of Lufthansa's UK-based BMI unit. The price was not disclosed, but the deal is expected to give IAG (and BA) another 8.5 per cent of the total slots at the UK's London Heathrow Airport.
Marketing experts say they expect a flurry of deeply-discounted fares from Australia's Qantas as it tries to win back passengers following its fleet grounding a week ago.
