Court says BAA must sell airports

The Court of Appeal has upheld a decision made by the Competition Commission that BAA Ltd  must sell Stansted and either Edinburgh or Glasgow airports within two years. 

BAA is now seeking to appeal to the UK’s Supreme Court to get this ruling changed after the company won an appeal last year against the original decision of the Competition Commission. Currently BAA owns six UK airports. www.baa.com
