Ryanair boss threatens to move jobs to Poland in face of walkouts
Ryanair’s CE, Michael O’Leary, has threatened to move more jobs to Poland as the airline faces the prospect of more strikes by crews in Europe. The airline pledged in December to recognise unions for the first time, but has struggled to reach collective labour agreements with some. Last week the airline revealed plans to move crew and planes from Dublin, saying strikes there were harming bookings. O’Leary said Tuesday he was prepared to cut jobs “in any market” if necessary. “We have today – in Ryanair – 20 markets that need more aircraft. We’re short of aircraft in almost every market in which we operate because of the demand for our prices, our services,” he said. He added that those markets included Poland, which is home to its Ryanair Sun unit. <br/>
