"We need to find a partner in 2017, and Lufthansa is a possible one," said Air Berlin chief executive Thomas Winkelmann. "I will look at everything that makes sense for Air Berlin and secures jobs in the long term," he told Die Zeit weekly in an interview. Amid its restructuring, it has also been hit by a string of flight cancellations and severe delays, including over the recent Whitsun long weekend. But beyond the bad publicity caused by the delays, the airline would also have to pay a price.
