"It’s expected that up to 40,000 passengers will hit by flight cancellations. The airline is to get in touch and offer a refund or alternative booking.

The pilots 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."

    “The ‘work-to-rule’ announced is an insidious form of industrial action which will have a cumulative and negative impact on Aer Lingus customers”

    if you have to cancel 20% of your flights because your pilots start working according to their contract, after you do not give them a pay raise that covers inflation and drag the talks out 22 months, then you are a scumbag of an employer and deserve to see how your precious company that is built on slavery goes down the drain.

      Instead, they’ll pay their bottom tier employees to get berated by people with legitimate gripes, settle for a class action, and keep on sailing the skies.
