THY Turkish Airlines said Friday its management board had decided to bid for a 49% stake in Bosnia's BH Airlines. The company had previously expressed an interest in bidding after the govt of Bosnia's Muslim-Croat federation extended the deadline for the submission of bids. The Bosnian govt said previously that the Islamic Corporation for the Development of Private Sector and Croatian and Malaysian firms were also interested in bidding. The federation govt owns 99% of the company, with 1% held by regional engineering group Energoinvest. BH Airlines went bankrupt in 2003, but resumed operations in 2005 after a deal with Hypo Alpe Adria bank to settle most of its debt. The company employs 89 people and transported some 70,000 passengers in 2007.
