The EU has made changes in airline regulation that dramatically affect major European carriers such as British International Air$($BIA$),$ KLM$,$ Air$$ France, Alitalia, and Swiss International Air. With ambitious expansion$$ plans, BIA has decided it needs a second service hub on the$$ continent, to complement its large Heathrow$($London$)$ repair facility. The location selection is$$ critical, and with the potential for$4,000$ new skilled$$ blue$-$collar jobs on the$$ line, virtually every city in Western Europe is actively bidding for$$ BIA's business.

After initial investigations by Holmes$$ Miller, head of the Operations$$ Department, BIA has narrowed the list to $9$ cities. Each is then rated on $12$ factors, as shown in the table below.
