Personally, would rather have IAG focus on the Italian market and make a bid for IG. Other than IB, OW is rather weak in the Mediterranean area. Also, I'm wondering if IAG can capture some LIS-Brazil O&D for less money than buying TP itself. Although, I do like the idea of OW stealing another member from Star.
