Dublin: Ryanair chief executive Michael O'Leary on Thursday said he couldn't rule out axing more flights, but added any further cancellations would not be linked to current pilot roster problems.

O'Leary told the company's annual general meeting in Dublin that he "cannot guarantee there won't be futher cancellations, but there won't be any further cancellations as a result of this rostering issue", confirmed a spokesman , who noted that further grounding of planes would be linked to weather issues and strikes also hampering the company.
