"..... shame Aer Lingus " ??
Aer Lingus will say they are operating everything, no weather or other forseeable natural causes that will stop flights, that every member of staff is working, - everything is perfect .
-except for a few hundred well-paid cabin crew ( for whose jobs thousands of irish and other unemployed people would kill for) who, alone amongst Lingus staff are still holding out for conditions that are no longer sustainable in that industry or in this economy and refuse to accept conditions that are far better than Ryanair staff enjoy and which would make most employees green with envy.
That's what Aer Lingus would say....
... and that the shame is not with the airline but with those boys and girls in Impact who still think this is 2005.
