Correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding is that Niki is merged with TUI and will mainly serve holiday charter business. There is not much left for OW from Niki. AB will lease quite a number of their planes to the LH group which leaves a pretty much stripped AB which intends to keep business travellers across the Atlantic - in competition to AA - and some other long distance flights. There is not much traffic left within Europe AB will serve.
