Aer Lingus has apologised to passengers for the “inconvenience” and disruption expected next week when industrial action will be taken by pilots at the airline.

Pilots at Aer Lingus are to begin an indefinite work-to-rule from next Wednesday after balloting for industrial action, which means they will not engage in overtime or out-of-hours duties.
