Talks aimed at ending a pay dispute between Aer Lingus management and pilots’ union IALPA have broken down
Aer Lingus suspended travel privileges for pilots during the dispute, leading to further disagreement
Pilots have begun an indefinite work-to-rule and are planning an eight-hour strike, resulting in the cancellation of 270 flights and affecting thousands of passengers.
IALPA moved from seeking a 23.8pc pay rise to negotiate, while Aer Lingus stuck with a 12.25pc figure that would require pilots’ own payments through work practice changes
