LONDON: British Airways-owner IAG said it was not in talks to acquire Finnish carrier Finnair, denying a report in a Finnish newspaper that said talks between the pair had advanced.
“We haven’t been in any discussions with Finnair,” a spokeswoman for IAG told Reuters on Thursday.
Shares in Finnair rose as much as 6 percent on the reports earlier on Thursday, before paring gains to trade at around 2 percent.
