That won't satisfy the competition regulators. They aren't that st*pid. Ryanair & Aer Lingus have a combined market share of something in the range of 67% on London-Dublin. Anything over 40% usually gets them nervous!
I like the idea that MOL has done this to usurp 'someone' else who may have been snooping around - any idea who this could be? (My vote: Emirates). They'd love to get their mits on the slots that Aer Lingus has at LHR.
