United Kingdom -Hundreds of jobs at risk as airflight carrier Bmibaby closes -May 4, 2012

Despite large-scale reorganisations that cost approximately 1200 jobs, no new owner has been attracted for low cost carrier BMI. The International Airline Group, owner of British Airways, said immediately after the take-over of the company, that bmibaby and bmi Regional were not a part of its long-term strategy. IAG has now announced closure for September and has started negotiating a social plan with unions. Reductions in bmibaby’s flying programme will be introduced from June to control the company’s losses.
