Ryanair shares dip as court allows for UK strikes

Ryanair shares dipped slightly after its success in blocking a 48-hour strike by its Dublin-based pilots was followed by the British High Court giving the green-light for a potentially more damaging UK pilot strike.

Ryanair shares - already down around 20% since the turn of the year - initially rose as much as 2% on the Irish High Court ruling blocking this week's planned strike action of Irish-based pilots.
