Title: Ryanair not to take over Aer Lingus
Post by: TEDDYBEAR on February 12, 2013, 02:40:47 PM
Ryanair has said that the European Commission has informed the airline that it intends to block its proposed offer for rival Aer Lingus.

Ryanair said the decision was "clearly a political one" to meet the interests of the Irish government and was not based on competition law.

It said it would appeal against any prohibition decision.
