Some may be confusing BMI Baby, which is an LCC, with its parent, BMI, which is not and never has been.

I was also on two charter trips, which led me to have to fly the following:

- 1 flight on Air Berlin (not bad actually)
- 1 flight on Condor (also not bad)
- 2 flights on Iberworld (truly horrible)

And I have one flight booked on Air Berlin to Iceland, but with the XL seat option... This will be to start a *A CRTW.

bmi is most definitely not a LCC. They are part of an alliance, they code share, are a network carrier, offer long-haul flights, offer connecting flights, have a FFP, have lounges, have business class, offer interlining, etc. The only LCC characteristic I can see on bmi is buy-on-board in economy class.
