Virgin furious after British Airways owner buys BMI
25 December 2011The owner of British Airways agreed to buy rival airline BMI in a deal which rivals claim will mean higher prices for flyers.
The deal will give BA owners International Airlines Group (IAG) more than half of the take-off and landing slots at Heathrow.
Virgin Atlantic said the airline would be able to use their ”monopoly power” to force up fares if the £172.5million takeover is completed.
