Daa reviewing how man got on plane at Dublin Airport without passport or boarding pass 

'The individual in question barged past Aer Lingus boarding agents at the gate and crew at the door of the aircraft and took a seat on board,' Aer Lingus said.

A review is underway as to how a man managed to board a flight at Dublin airport without a passport or boarding pass.

The man has since appeared before the courts after reports that he "barged past Aer Lingus agents at the gate" before getting on an aircraft that was scheduled to fly to Birmingham.
