The budget company is the first Irish airline to do so after the EU approved this back in November but it hasnt outlined plans to offer in-flight mobile internet. The EU said 3G and 4G flights are part of its long-term regulatory strategy, a move approved by the UKs Ofcom last month.

The airline reported a loss for the final quarter of the year, which it says was due to lower fares and sterlings weakness against the euro.
