Passengers are facing disruption as Aer Lingus pilots have begun industrial action over a pay dispute. The Irish Air Line Pilot's Association (IALPA) is currently in an indefinite work-to-rule, with an upcoming eight-hour strike planned for Saturday. Over 270 flights have been cancelled, causing chaos for travelers. Despite failed attempts at resolving the conflict, Aer Lingus is working to minimize disruption for customers. Passengers are advised to check for flight cancellations and delays, with the airline offering details on their website. As the situation unfolds, travelers are urged to have backup plans and consider alternative airlines. While both sides continue to negotiate, the impact on passengers and the Irish economy remains a concern. The ongoing dispute highlights the need for compromise and a resolution to prevent further chaos for air passengers.
