Profits increase at Aer Lingus
Despite referring to 2010 as “a difficult year” at the publication of its annual results last month, the airline still managed to record a pre-tax profit of €30.4m against a 2009 pre-tax loss of €154.8m — and forecast continued profitability in 2011.
The publication of the airline’s annual report yesterday showed that Mr Mueller — who took over the top job at Aer Lingus from Dermot Mannion in the summer of 2009 — was paid a basic salary of €475,000 last year, received a pension contribution of €119,000 and a performance-related bonus of €483,000.
