IAG, the owner of Aer Lingus and British Airways, may take the British government to court over its quarantine period for incoming travellers.

Willie Walsh, the Chief Executive of IAG, said there had been no consultation with the industry prior to the legislation being brought in and that the 14-day quarantine rule makes no sense.

Ian Guider, markets editor of the Business Post, joined us for our daily business update with this story and more from the aviation and retail industries, including:

  • Ryanair wants the Irish government to lift travel restrictions by the end of June
  • The Dublin Airport Authority is losing €1 million a day because of travel restrictions
  • Penneys won't be reopening with other retailers next week
