O'Leary calls for army to implement airport contingency plan

Ryanair Chief Executive Michael O'Leary has called on the army to implement a contingency plan to keep the airports open on Thursday ahead of threatened industrial action by SIPTU members.

Aer Rianta has given formal notice that they are not in a position to guarantee airport service from 8am to 10am this Thursday because of the likely disruption by security fire crews.
