Aer Lingus flights affected for Irish people from Thursday 11 July to Sunday 14 July

Both sides in the Aer Lingus dispute are awaiting the Labour Court recommendation in the Aer Lingus pilots pay dispute, which could be made known in the coming days.

The Pilots' union IALPA and Management at the airline met earlier in the week, after which the Labour Court informed the parties that it would exercise its right to intervene in the dispute under the Industrial Relations Act.

The Airline announced 80 additional flight cancellations from Thursday 11 July to Sunday 14 July.
