Michael O’Leary’s Ryanair officially presented its takeover bid to Aer Lingus investors yesterday, giving them until January 5th to accept the €1.40 ($1.87) per share offer.
Ryanair presented the opportunity to create ”one leading, financially strong, Irish-run airline group.”
The offered share price represents a €748 million offer, a premium of approximately 28% over the average closing price for the 30 days ended Nov. 28 and considerably lower than the €2.80 per share that it offered two years ago.
Ryanair guaranteed that Aer Lingus would remain a separately operated company and that both its brand and its slots and connectivity at London Heathrow would remain.
Ryanair announced today that they are to close 2 routes to Cork Airport from the United Kingdom.
This is a blow to toursim in the southwest of Ireland, a region that has also seen UK visitor numbers affected by the closure of the Swansea-Cork ferry 2 years ago.
The routes to close are from East-Midlands and Glasgow-Prestwick, which will close on October 26th and 28th respectively.
Ryanair’s CEO Michael O’Leary said they had made the decision due to an increase in the charges being imposed by the airport on those routes from 1 November however Cork Airport management have rejected this claim stating that they have not raised charges.
Rising oil prices, falling house prices and the ever worsening credit crunch, whether it’s TV, Radio or opening your newspaper thats all we seem to hear about these days. But are recessions really all that bad or can we look for a silver lining amidst all the doom and gloom?
Never one to miss an opportunity Micheal O’Leary, chief executive officer of Ryanair, today announced that he had started discussions Boeing to order as many as 200 new airplanes to their fleet.
