Aer Lingus – Potential Strike March 14

Irish airline Aer Lingus has started rebooking customers due to the threat of a strike by workers on March 14. Aer Lingus’s largest trade union has called for a four-hour stoppage on March 14 – the start of a holiday weekend for Ireland’s St Patrick’s Day. “The service of notice of industrial action to take place on 14 March 2014 has already caused significant commercial damage to (the) company and has inconvenienced and distressed customers,” Aer Lingus said in a statement.

“The company will commence the process of re-accommodating and rebooking customers from tomorrow – 4 March 2014 – in order to give certainty to customers regarding their travel arrangements in the face of threatened industrial action.”
