The {{W|European Commission}} (EC) has approved a takeover of loss-making [[UK]] airline {{W|British Midland International|bmi}} from {{W|Lufthansa}} by {{W|International Airlines Group}} (IAG), owner of [[British Airways]] (BA). IAG will have to make concessions after {{W|Virgin Atlantic}} told the EC the deal would be anti-competitive.

The deal is set to cost IAG, who also own {{W|Iberia}}, {{W|Pound sterling|£}}172.5 million. That value could fall as budget
IAG intends to use acquired slots at the busy {{W|Heathrow Airport}}, which serves [[London]], to expand their own routes into Asia. The EC required BA to surrender a number of flight slots at the airport. The slots surrendered or made available for lease are for use to destinations in [[Scotland]], [[France]], [[Egypt]], [[Saudi Arabia]], and [[Russia]]. The EC also insisted that combined BA/bmi routing be made available for competititors to buy transfer seats upon.
