Aer Lingus cancels some flights from summer schedule

BBC:

A number of Aer Lingus flights have been cancelled from its summer schedule due to what it has described as “mandatory maintenance on aircraft”.

The airline said “a limited number” of adjustments have been made, adding that the “vast majority of customers” are being accommodated on same-day services.

It comes after the Sunday Independent reported that “more than 500” Aer Lingus flights are being cut.

The airline said the schedule changes apply to approximately 2% of Aer Lingus’ overall schedule.

The Sunday Independent reported that flights from Dublin to European airports -including Amsterdam, Athens, Berlin, Faro and Zurich are to be removed from the schedule on a range of dates.

It also said that flights to London Heathrow, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh will also be cancelled, with passengers booked on to other services.
