Don't think AF/KLM would be allowed to.My bet would be Iberia.

I think they would.

Iberia can't afford to splash out, I would have thought. Although there
seems to be a lot of clever money in Spain for takeovers at the moment.

Dark clouds over Spanish property deals might over-shadow 'clever'
money.

Or the desire. More likely to be a financial bidder and probably an
Italian one at that.

Just as long as he isn't the Italian who sold me a real leather
