Talks force Aer Lingus to delay results publication

ONGOING talks between Aer Lingus management and staff has forced the company to postpone the publication of its preliminary results which were due to be released today.

The airline said it is “determined” to achieve its aim of saving €97 million even after the cost-cutting plan was rejected by some workers.

“These savings are vital to realign the cost base of the company and position Aer Lingus for a successful future,” the airline said in a statement yesterday.
