A hearing on Ryanair's application for a court order to prevent next week's pilot strikes has been put back until Monday.
The airline's lawyers were seeking a High Court injunction to stop the pilots walking off the job next Thursday and Friday.
They say the timing of the industrial action in the middle of school holidays would cause massive disruption.
The judge hearing the case has given representatives for Ryanair and the unions involved until Monday to present any relevant documents.
