Q&A: What should I do if my flight is cancelled due to Aer Lingus pilots' dispute?

Everything you need to know about the dispute between pilots' union Ialpa and Aer Lingus and what it might mean for you

Aer Lingus pilots could potentially go on strike any time from next Monday.

Passengers who have flights booked for the weeks ahead may have to contend with the possibility of strikes, after Aer Lingus members of the Irish Airline Pilots’ Association (Ialpa) on Tuesday served notice of their intention to go on indefinite work-to-rule, from Wednesday, June 26.

Aer Lingus typically carries in excess of 40,000 passengers per day during the summer months. Strikes could spell chaos for the airline industry across the continent ahead of the peak summer weeks.
