The Irish High Court on Wednesday granted Ryanair (RYA.I) an injunction to prevent Dublin-based pilots from proceeding on their planned strike.
Ryanair went to court to obtain an order against Forsa, the parent body of the Irish Air Line Pilots’ Association (IALPA), to prevent the Dublin-based pilots from striking for 48 hours on Thursday and Friday.
On Wednesday, Ryanair’s legal counsel told the High Court that Forsa had not allowed for the mediation process to be completed before announcing the strike.
The counsel claimed that the strike would be in breach of an agreement made between the airline and the union in 2018.
IALPA represents some 180 Dublin-based pilots, who are directly employed by Ryanair.
