Ryanair transatlantic plan 'still four or five years away'

Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary said that any plan to start a transatlantic service is four to five years away.

Speaking to reporters in Dublin, he said the plan is still speculative though there have been talks with airports about starting such a service.

Mr O’Leary said any plan depends on getting getting planes at the right price.

Separately, he said there's "not a chance" of teaming with the Government for a joint sale of their stakes in Aer Lingus.
