A second day of talks aimed at ending the long-running dispute between Ryanair and its Irish-based pilots is continuing at Dublin Airport this evening.
Ryanair management and the pilots' union, Fórsa, are attempting to resolve differences over base transfers, promotions, leave and other issues.
Three days have been set aside to reach a resolution, with the former head of the Workplace Relations Commission Kieran Mulvey mediating.
Around 100 of Ryanair's 350 Irish-based pilots held their fifth one-day strike on Friday in a dispute over base transfers, promotions, leave and other issues.
They joined pilots in Belgium, Holland, Germany and Sweden in a series of strikes that forced the airline to cancel 396 of 2,400 flights, disrupting thousands of passengers.
It is thought that Mr Mulvey may ask Fórsa to suspend any further strike action.
The former head of the Workplace Relations Commission could also ask Ryanair to row back from a move to cut its Dublin aircraft fleet from October, with the possible loss or transfer of hundreds of jobs.
