Back in Restaurants and Back in the Skies

This week on Taking Stock Mandy Johnston looks our eating and travel habits post pandemic, because we have gone back to both with great gusto. Ryanair this week reported pre-tax profit of €1.4bn for the six months of the year. How did it recover so well and what are its plans for the future? Mandy chats Sean Keyes of the Currency about the secret of Ryanair’s success. Back on the ground here in Ireland, how we eat and when we eat has changed, and we hear from Maureen Gahan of Bord Bia about our new post pandemic dining-out habits And Former president Donal Trump is expected to declare his candidacy, but he will do so under investigation for everything from his handling of top-secret documents to the price tag placed on his New York penthouse. Joe Miller from the Financial Times in New York talks us through the big legal battles ahead for Mr Trump and his Business Empire
