The airline operates over 2,000 flights a week with a fleet of 53 jet aircraft which have an average age of five years. bmi serves 25 destinations in 10 countries and in 2001 carried over six and a half million passengers. Through its membership of Star Alliance, a grouping of 14 airlines offering seamless travel worldwide, it is also able to offer an international network reaching all areas of the globe.

Throughout its history the airline has gained unparalleled experience and expertise in a wide range of operating environments and markets throughout the world. It is however best recognised for its unique contribution to shaping and taking advantage of open skies within the United Kingdom and Europe and for its continued fight to bring change to the transatlantic market from London Heathrow.

vegetarian food on UK domestic services (1992)
a separate business class cabin with a unique choice of business fares (1993)

all jet regional service (2001)
installation and use of Tempus 2000, an integrated telemedicine service, on all its long haul flights.
bmi’s success at providing quality products and services has been recognised with the airline receiving over 50 industry awards since 1990. The awards include: twelve times consecutive winner of Best UK Domestic Airline (Travel Weekly), Short Haul Business Airline (Business Travel World), Best Short Haul Airline (Business Traveller) and Best UK Domestic Airline, Business (Conde Nast Traveller Readers Award).

More recently the airline received a maximum five star rating (*****) in the May 2002 edition of Business Traveller magazine for its Manchester to Washington services.
