O’Leary: No third airline bid unless Government asks

RYANAIR will wait for the Government to ask it to rescue Aer Lingus before it makes another bid for the airline.

Chief executive of Ryanair Michael O’Leary said unless that happens it will not be making a third bid for the former state airline.

Ryanair owns just under 30% of Aer Lingus shares and the company has no plans to sell this stake.
