Fly like a Pharaoh

To accompany the launch of our service to Cairo, bmi is the official airline sponsor of the biggest exhibition to hit London this decade - Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs. The exhibition, being held at The O2, Canary Wharf, London, which opened in November 2007, will run for 10 months and is set to attract more than 1.2 million visitors.

The exhibition will be brought to life for all bmi customers with a Tutankhamun presence in bmi lounges, inflight and online at flybmi.com. As well as coinciding with the Cairo launch, the partnership comes at a time when we are also celebrating a number of new route launches to destinations in Africa, Eastern Europe, central Asia, the Middle East and further into Russia.

Watch out for promotional literature and competitions for the chance to win flights to London, as well as tickets to the Tutankhamun exhibition at The O2. bmi diamond club members can also look forward to discounts on exhibition tickets. For further information, diamond club members can sign into their online account at flybmi.com
