Ryanair says will review Niki's slots ‍​

BERLIN, Dec (Shanghai: 600875.SS - news) 14 (Reuters) - Irish low cost carrier Ryanair said will look into how much use it can make of insolvent carrier's Niki's take-off and landing slots, although there may not be enough for it to start up operations in Berlin Tegel (Berlin: TGW.BE - news) .

Ryanair had applied for slots at Berlin Tegel following the collapse of Niki parent Air Berlin (LSE: 0GPE.L - news) , but those went mainly to easyJet, which is buying some Air Berlin operations.

Ryanair has said it would like slots that would enable it to have 9 or 10 aircraft based at individual German airports.

"At first look, Niki's Tegel slot portfolio would be woefully inadequate to support a nine-aircraft base but we will review the utility of Niki's slots as their availability becomes clearer," Ryanair said in an emailed statement. (Reporting by Victoria Bryan; Editing by Arno Schuetze)
