AB: Air Berlin puts the cat amongst the pigeons: To join OneWorld....

Now here's something that is completely out of the blue - Air Berlin - a Low Cost Carrier based in Germany has accepted an invitation to join OneWorld!

Appearing on the Oneworld website, a full statement is to be released Tuesday afternoon, and will be a development routes with AA and Finnair - with British Airways acting as a mentor.

Could this be the starting pistol some have waited for - LCC's to join major alliances?

And will this lead to BA, Iberia, and Finnair cowering in fear - or is International Airlines Group quietly watching and waiting?

More details tomorrow evening!
