Ryanair’s O’Leary threatens action over compo deal

RYANAIR’S Michael O’Leary said he will challenge in the courts any attempt to compensate passengers for missed or delayed flights.

The controversial chief executive also wished Aer Lingus well in their battle with the striking trade unions at Dublin Airport and said he hoped Aer Rianta would be next.

Mr O’Leary left the aviation industry in no doubt about his philosophy for low cost travel when he addressed a conference on Deregulation and Open Skies in Brussels yesterday.
