Con meno di 50m€ si sono presi Niki, 740 lavoratori e 15 A320. Lufthansa, qualche mese fa, ha acquistato grossomodo meta' di Air Berlin - meno Niki, ovviamente - per 210 milioni di euro. Direi che sono cifre utili per avere un'indicazione del possibile valore di Alitalia.IAG to buy assets of Austrian airline NIKI
British Airways' parent company IAG is to buy assets of the Austrian airline NIKI, which was formerly part of the Air Berlin group, for €20 million and provide liquidity to NIKI of up to €16.5 million.
The transaction is being made by a newly-formed subsidiary of Vueling which will be incorporated as an Austrian company and run initially as a separate operation. It is subject to customary closing conditions such as the EC competition approval.
The assets include up to 15 A320 family aircraft and an attractive slot portfolio at various airports including Vienna, Dusseldorf, Munich, Palma and Zurich.
The new company plans to employ approximately 740 former NIKI employees to run the operation.
Willie Walsh said: “NIKI was the most financially viable part of Air Berlin and its focus on leisure travel means it’s a great fit with Vueling. This deal will enable Vueling to increase its presence in Austria, Germany and Switzerland and provide the region’s consumers with more choice of low cost air travel”.
