If O Leary tries to interfere with the floatation then its clear he sees Aer Lingus as a threat to him. Just because ryanair begin a new route does not mean it will be a success.Many times the Aer Lingus and Ryanair flights arrive together an Manchester and most of the time Aer Lingus are carrying more passangers.Ryanairs new route to Berlin has not decreased the Aer Lingus load.Would you like to spend 8 and a half hours with Ryanair and its mobile phone chatting passangers?,Fuertaventura return.Yes Aer Lingus must keep its costs in order and supply its customers with a better product but they are aware of that.If both airlines compete on the same route its the foreign airline that will suffer.The business is there for both airlines if they dont try to destroy each other.
