Air Berlin administrator says no Niki offer after talks with Thomas Cook

BERLIN, Dec (Shanghai: 600875.SS - news) 12 (Reuters) - Air Berlin (LSE: 0GPE.L - news) 's administrator said renewed talks with Thomas Cook (Frankfurt: A0MR3W - news) have not led to a sustainable offer for the insolvent carrier's Austria-based Niki unit.

"Renewed talks with the consortium of bidders related to tour operator Thomas Cook have to date not even remotely led to a sustainable alternative offer," Air Berlin administrator Frank Kebekus said on Tuesday.

After a meeting on Tuesday, the creditor committee said Germany's Lufthansa (Xetra: LHAB.DE - news) remains the only valid prospective buyer. British Airways parent IAG has already dropped out of the bidding. (Reporting by Andreas Cremer; Editing by Adrian Croft)
